This on is a metaphor for how small the world seems when you're a child. When you're young, all you know is your best friend and the neighborhood from one street light to the next. When I was a child, I wasn't allowed to cross the street and my best friend outside of school was my next door neighbor.
I would take a globe and put two houses and two little dolls on it. Proportionally, the houses would be pretty large and would take up a large portion of the globe's surface, making the whole world seem smaller by comparison.
I think this is a pretty cool idea. I think the things that need attention the most would be how will the globe me mounted? On a traditional stand? from a string? Is it going to be stationary or able to turn? Another aspect is the treatment of the houses. How will you mount them? Will the houses be bought or made?
ReplyDeleteI like your ideas but i would like to see the sketches in class to get a better understanding of them!
