A Place for a Leaf ... Full Circle













































Our first studio project ! A Place for a Leaf.
EXCITING !!!!!! YA - YA !!

The place for a leave in my mind will always be falling from a tree on a crisp Autumn day. To represent this, I decided to make my project hang fro mthe ceiling. Around the actual leaf is a daimond shape that acts as an abstract form of what it holds. Through the four sides of the daimond, the paper starts to crinkle and deteriorate. This represents the life cycle of the leaf within. It is an ongoing process of life, It starts crisp and neat, starts to age and break apart, then finally crumbles back to the earth create more.
