Jenga 1 - Epiphany

Epiphany explored through the word "UNVEILING."

The kit of parts I chose for this space was "two solids" out of the three choices also including "two columns and a wall" and "two walls and a column." 

Once entering this space you are guided along the lines, and edges of each part of the solid in order to arrive at each destination, those being the bedroom, kitchen, bathroom, and living area. You are unable to see over the solids (they are 10' high) so you must continue to let yourself be guided by their lines. You have a maze-like experience, much like one you would experience as you are on your journey to epiphany.

                    

Epiphany explored through the words "REAL vs. SURREAL." 

Kit of parts: Two walls and a column.

In this space I played around with the question of "what is a wall?" I chose to make my two walls something less than expected. The first is a set of stairs leading to nowhere, where the one side facing the bedroom  is left open with multiple cubbyholes for extra storage. The other wall is a funhouse mirror providing privacy in the bathroom, and separating it from the kitchen. I used an inverted ionic column as my column in the space, it is positioned in a central point between the living area and bedroom to allow for an increased amount of privacy in the bedroom. It spans 2' in diameter, and 14' high.

Epiphany explored through the word "LIGHT."

Kit of parts: One wall and two columns.

I chose this space for the use of "light" because it is narrow, and has six windows along one wall. As you enter into this space you enter in darkness, and are beaconed to light by the columns doubling as lights providing a soft glow. You are guided by the curvilinear wall to the light of the kitchen, and ultimately the flooding of light along the wall of the bedroom opposing the curvilinear wall. This, to me, was the ultimate personification of the journey one would go on in their search for enlightenment, and ultimately the strike of epiphany. You wander around in darkness until "light" is shed on the circumstance, whatever it may be.
