For this assignment, we welcome back our paper cutting skills but this time with a little twist to it.
let me ask you?
WHAT IS A SQUARE?
WHAT IS A SQUARE TO YOU?
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF WHEN A SQUARE IS SHOWN?
IS A SQUARE JUST A SQUARE?
CAN A SQUARE BE ANYTHING ELSE ?
can it be a button?
or a sunflower?
or any flower...
or even a square of jelly fish?
a square of fingers?
bubbles of squares?
square in every kind of dimension?
or is it just a plain square to you?
or a sponge as a square? :)
or maybe its a different shape of a square?
SOUNDS DEEP HUH?
...
I know. I was mindblown when were asked this question " what is a square? "
never really occur to me before that a square can be many things, many things actually comes from just a square itself. we could do so much just with a 5x6 piece of square paper and made it looked as if its not just a square.
After much searching, I finally came up with an idea.
this is one of my very first sketches.
any guess on what it is?

YEAP! lanterns :)
I got inspired by this pictures. initially, i actually was thinking about the cartoon movie, " Enchanted" and plus i wanted a theme that describes freedom, friendship, togetherness, and something bright.
I got my yellow paper ready
started off with the trial version of the assignment just to get the hang of
the knife and also to see whether this theme would actually work for this "square assignment"
see the bits and pieces of the cut out lantern parts? :) yeap I had to paste one by one o the little pieces outside of the small square paper.
And because our assignment had to have 1) symmetry and the other one 2) Asymmetrical. futhermore we had to use every single small little pieces that were cut out from the square, nothing was suppose to be left behind.
sounds like a lot of work? willllll, wait until you see how everything turn out ;)
As i got started with my first square, I cut out all the lantern patterns form the square and kept the small bits all together in a small jar incase if i loose any of it.
this wasnt just it
there was more i tell you haha.
What do you think about the end product? :)
I'll post up how we presented our assignment on the next post.
it was amazing!
so stay tune! :D
