IDEAL SOLIDS

Luke

Lyric

Yesterday, the class completed work on the Ideal Solids drawings. Luke's drawing above is a surreal and apocalyptic landscape occupied with natural forms as well as the cold, geometric forms of the Ideal Solids. The dead tree and absence of anything living appears to illustrate the demise of an advanced or futuristic civilization. In addition, the values are rich and he has effectively employed atmospheric perspective.

Lyric has used the Ideal Solids to form figurative as well as architectural elements throughout her composition. The narrative presents a figure taking the stand and being judged by spherical heads that seem to have evolved beyond the need for bodies. The space is cramped adding to the looming and disapproving nature of the authority figures.
