Introduction
E.C.S Assignment 1 Assignment Objective Learn how to recycle-reuse-respect-reducereform waste products Create aesthetically pleasing compositions in 3-dimensional space. Grading Feedback cube: nice composition but had to be more 3D it was mainly clamping Sphere: needed to add more elements but adding the keyboard’s motherboard made it outstanding Self Assessment Self Assesment
Grade 7&8
motherboard gave it a cool effect
Rectilinear Forms
Assignment Objective Using clay, create 4 models. Each model contains 3 rectilinear volumes that are connected using different techniques Each model should contain the dominant-subordinate relationship. Each model should respect the x,y,z axis. Grading Feedback All models are grounded and have vertical orientation and neatness is mediocre Self Assessment I had difficulty in making 4 diverse models. There is no variation in axis.

Bird BnB Assignment 2 Assignment Objective Design a birdhouse using rectilinear geometries that is fully functional and threedimensional. Grading Feedback The model is basic. Too real not creative.
Self Assessment I encountered challenges when figuring out how to create my model, and my creativity was limited.
Grade 5.5
Curvilinear Forms
Assignment Objective Using clay, create 4 models. Each model contains 3 curvilinear volumes that are connected using different techniques. Each model should contain the dominant-subordinate relationship. Each model should respect the x,y,z axis. Grading Feedback
Self Assessment I Worked faster this time however neatness wasn’t improved but there was different axsis.

Typography Assignment 3 Assignment Objective Using only curvilinear volumes, you are required to design a 3-dimensional typography for a single letter/number, conveying a bold, colorful and fun theme Grading Feedback Different use of materials was nice but should be more colorful
Self Assessment I encountered challenges when figuring out how to create my model, and my creativity was limited.
Grade7.5
Recti-Curvilinear Forms
Assignment Objective Using clay, create 4 models. Each model contains a combination of curvilinear and rectilinear volumes that are connected using different techniques. Each model should represent the concept of grid, radial, central, and directional. Grading Feedback
Self Assessment I Worked faster this time however neatness wasn’t improved but there was different axsis.

Assignment 4 Assignment Objective you are required to design and produce an abstract map sculpture.
Grading Feedback The model is small and the painting could’ve been better.
Self Assessment I encountered challenges when figuring out how to create my model, and my creativity was limited.

Fragments
Filler Assignment 5 Assignment Objective you are required to mimic the process of injecting fillers to an object of your choice.
Grading Feedback The model is basic. Too real not creative.
Self Assessment I encountered challenges when figuring out how to create my model, and my creativity was limited.
Grade 5.5
Assignment Objective Create a cone, sphere, cube, cuboid, cylinder using clay. Fragment each shape into a 3-dimensional model
Grading Feedback
Self Assessment I Worked faster this time however neatness wasn’t improved but there was different axsis.
