     We began toying with the idea of a town or city. After discussing the various ways we could go about our idea, we somehow ended up with the idea of a house.

There are little metaphoric easter eggs to look for between the rooms. Each of us is using our favorite medium; Mariah is using clay for the kitchen, Danielle is using wire for the attic, Shauna is using textiles and plaster for the bathroom, Sophie is using wood for the bedroom, and I am using found objects for the living room. Everyone is going about their room in a personal way. The final sculpture will stack on top of one another or hang next to each other on the wall. Our final presentation is stacked currently.  Work-in-progress
