Nowadays, we cannot deny art and design are influent with people around the world. Most of People buy a cloth or jewelry by look at a design and first. So in my opinion I think Art not only a beautiful thing in a museum but art also combine with everything in a daily life as well. Today, I had an opportunity to see the IFADM exhibition by the UCA foundation students. I saw varities type of their artwork such as Video art, oil painting, model mock up, jewelry and so on.
The project that was most memorable is The Block Park that concern with a traditional house in Kenya by Ireane Luusa. She has inspiration from the London Box park to created this project. I walked around to see a detail first, The models have a plzzle lego look like a little house, she was decorated inside with furniture separated in many section such as bed room, bath room, living room as a real life. Moreover, she explained concept about lighting on her model as well.
She has an inspiration from the natural lighting in Kenya hunt and she put them into her project. Furthermore, she was encouraging people realize to save electricity by use more natural lighting. I also had a chance to talk with Ireane Luusa, who created this project. She came from Kenya to study Architecture and Design here and she has a plane to study Interior design next . She told me this the reason why she try to decorated the rooms in this project. She spent time around two to three weeks did a model by herself including told me some a processes of her work. I interested many things with her model especially energy saving. This model showed her talent and her creative amazingly by combine an inspiration, the Kenya traditional and contemporary design.
After I visited the IFADM exhibition I realize about the power and imagination of a student also showed their talent to an audience perfectly. I hope all of their artwork today would inspire me to create my own work in the future.
