My architecture experience

In my life, I do not have many chances to communicate with an architecture, but I have been to a few construction site in Thailand. Because my father is a carpenter in Thailand, I know some about interior design. Also, my brother just graduated from Academy of Art in San Francisco last year, and his major is interior design. Thus, I told my brother to teach me AutoCAD, so I know how to use it. As you know, my major is engineering, so I have to be comfortable with AutoCAD right away. After I move to Chicago, I went to several museum in here, and I found out about Chicago that this city has a long history about architecture. Chicago had a big impact on American architecture.

This is my house in Thailand that my father uses his experiences to design by himself. He never went to study interior design, so all he uses only his experiences.

Happiness exhibition

 
Our class went to the Chicago Culture Center last Wednesday, and the machine that supposed to give us the cards was out off service. The next day after I finished my math class, I headed directly from Wright to downtown, and the machine was working this time. I began again at "Hello", and I got the card that said "Remove one shoe and one sock and carry them." I was stunted for a few minutes, and then I thought who is going to do it because I'm not crazy. However, I did. The exhibit provides me a lot of information about happiness and how can I be happy, and it is kind of surprise me by the fact that he give me. For example, a couple has less happiness during they have a children with them. What! Then, my favorite art work in the exhibit is the uselessness is gorgeous because it is huge, and I think he give us a different between art and design. I like when he said "to do something without any goal and any function has it own beauty." Next, I am not quite get in the monkey that hold the quote that said "everybody thinks they are right." What do they imply? Finally, for me, the exhibition is simple because they use mostly black maker without any background, so it is like he just write the sentences on the wall.  However, it presents many documentary and carry a lot of meaningful sentences. Moreover, the video "if I don't ask, I won't get it" infers people as the balloon which at the end they all were broken, and the pin is like the questions.

Art as Charactor


When I was looking for a interesting painting in the internet, I found this one, and I followed until I found the blog below. The person who paints this one is Sarah Christensen. She is also a blogger, and the name of her paint is Fall Tree Painting. I choose this one because it is simple, and full of color. I personally love tree and nature, so I spend most of my time in Lincoln Park. Thus, I decide to take this painting.  The painter used a variety of color, and that is what I like about. This painting reminds me of my personality. I like to represent each color as each character because it is fun. One person can have many character because of surrounding
