Repetition For my iteration number 2, I wanted to express the journey I’m about to start with this class. In my first iteration I represented my comfort zone with a cube. Now, that cube is expanding and divided. I used two curvilinear segments of wood to impose a sense of movement and rhythm. The three triangles are meant to in incorporate repetition to the model while they keep being the representation of information, options and questions. The two cubes at one end are my scattered knowledge, positioned at the beginning of the curvilinear segments to represent the “journey” of evolution to become rounded and unify.

Overall, my composition has an intentional form of a DNA molecule. I tried to emphasize that my comfort zone is deforming and breaking apart. The reason why I used sharp-angled triangles is because the information I’m receiving sometimes is confusing and overwhelming but is definitely becoming part of me with this journey. My knowledge is starting to “evolve” from unpolished and static to more balanced and well-centered one.
