Undergrad assignment and schedule:
Body Bridge
Create an artwork (one object, collaborative) that exists as an extension of two bodies, which bridges the space between them via a
sculptural/architectural/corporeal supplement. Use your own bodies/selves as a starting point and work towards each other. Consider aspects of identity, culture, and form. Incorporate a kinetic or moving aspect within the structure of the object, and consider how you will interact interact with your body bridge in a way that
significantly alters your experience of it.
