Four Original Ideas and Concept Statements

Rio Theatre: I have a love for films and experiencing them has changed a lot. I think old theatres stay true to the experience of watching a film because that’s how it all started. Which is why I chose this building. I would execute it by constructing the shape of the neon sign (it would come off and out of the wall) and put the picture collage onto it to make a 3D version.

People Aging: Originally I wanted to compare different ages from one another in terms of face detail. I was thinking about takings bits and pieces of different faces and making a larger one with 3 or 4 different age groups. I would display these within frames that would hang on the wall. For some reason, I strayed from this idea and was thinking about how certain people looking now compared to the past.

Getting Ready: When you think about it, it’s ridiculous how long it takes most girls to get ready, myself included, and the extremes we go to be “beautiful”. I wanted to include the different steps of my process in the morning to express both the multiple steps and the before and after. I also thought about timing how long it takes me to get ready and somehow including it within the collage.


Union Station: Union Station is a beautiful building and I wanted to express how it was then and how it is now. In means of executing it I wanted to get a large floor plan of the station and paste on top of it images of how it came to life. My other idea was to create a collage of old and new photos.
