I used a decorative branch for the tree branch, tissue paper for the fabric, sticks for the legs, and carved up/shaped paper for the body. It was moderately irritating to find materials because I'm moving and couldn't find what I wanted, however I made do with what I had. I gathered sticks from outside for the body and shaped and cut tissue paper with scissors.

The more and more I read about Shonibare's reason for creating The Swing After Fragonard and all of the deep symbolism in each element, the more interested I became. Rooted in colonialism, cultural appropriation, and French history, the meaning behind the piece carries a complexity that stands out to me. I decided to recreate the piece not only because of the incredible meaning, but also because Roccoco is my favorite style of artwork.

I decided to replicate this piece because I was inspired by some materials I found, such as marker caps and sticks. I also appreciate the symmetry within each of the figures in the piece. I used stones, marker caps, cardboard, and sticks when making this piece. I shaped the cardboard into the bodies of some of the figures and also used it as a background. I used the rocks for the podiums, and the marker caps for the legs. I also used pom poms for some of the heads and pens for some of the bodies.

I chose to recreate Dome of the Rock because I appreciate that it was aesthetically pleasing with the golden temple and patterned outside while also being able to accommodate large crowds of visiting pilgrims. I used masking tape, painters tape, a dome shaped rock I found outside, marbles, a tissue box, and some cardboard. I created the structure of the piece using cardboard and the painters tape was for visually accurate purposes. I then created a small cardboard platform on the tissue box for the stone to be on top of.

I decided to recreate this piece because I knew that it would be a challenge and also it represents a complicated theme despite it's moderately simple appearance. I like that it reflects deformity instead of idealism and appreciate it's symmetry.

To make this piece, I used sticks, tape, glue, a paper ball, and a toothpick. I used scissors and shaped the paper ball to appear like two heads. I used sticks that I broke and shaped for the body and a toothpick for the arms.

I decided to recreate this piece because when I went over it originally, I was very interested by the amount of rare quetzal feathers used in it! This is a great example of the rarity and cost of the material in a piece being used to represent high status.

To make the piece, I used my sphere shaped rock to make a sphere shaped line of blue tape to mimic the innermost part of the headdress. For the feathers, I shaped and cut tissue. And for the other details, I used marbles.
