I created a bricolage model on my view of learning. See photos of it below and click to watch a video that further explains it and the process. You can also read a reflection about my process below the photos and videos.
Reflection
Personally, as an artist, I love creating and making things three-dimensional and making thoughts visible. However, this process was much different in terms of what I was representing. I found myself puzzled at first, unsure where to start and looking for inspiration in different places. Finally, after a couple of days of incubation, an idea popped into my head. Once I began making my three-dimensional model, the ideas seemed to flow much easier. There definitely was some trial and error, but I think I made a nice representation of my perspective.
Overall, I had fun, I am proud of what I created and I think it is unique. However, looking at the completed model, I think I overcomplicated it. It is overwhelming to look at and I don’t think the message I tried to send would be very clear without my explanation. This process made me realize how difficult it must be for others to create illustrations and models that represent complex ideas or concepts for textbooks, posters, websites, businesses, etc. On top of figuring out what the entire project would be, I came across numerous problems to solve in the creation process. For example: - What color pipe cleaners should I use? - Should I keep the toilet paper tube within the double helix for support? - How should I support it to make the structure stand on its own? - Is “Knowledge Base” a good way to refer to what I’m talking about? - Did I use too many colors? And so many more!
