Basic Math Terminology and Shapes

We have been tasked to explain basic mathematical shapes and terminology (Equalateral and Quadrilateral shapes). We have to Identify, Describe and Explain each shape and its properties. 

By definition, an equilateral shape is a shape that has all its sides an equal length.  Take, for example, the Equilateral triangle.  

This is an equilateral triangle. An equilateral triangle is a 3 sided, 2-dimensional shape like any other triangle however as the name suggests all sides and angles of this triangle are equal. All angles are 60 degrees and add up to 180 degrees. 

A Quadrilateral shape by definition is a four-sided, 2D shape. Unlike the Equilateral shapes, quadrilateral shapes do not have to be equal length. Some examples of quadrilateral shapes are the following shapes below.

All these shapes are quadrilateral shapes. Some examples of a quadrilateral shape is a square and a parallelogram.

A square has 4 equal sides and equal angles. It is both a equilateral and quadrilateral shape, making it the only shape that is both an equilateral and quadrilateral. The diagonals of the square are equal as well. 

The parallelogram unlike the square does not have 4 equal sides and angles, instead it is a 4 sided regtangular shape with opposite sides parallel to eachother. The opposite angles are also congruent (equal in length) and it's diagonals bisect eachother.  

Painting Progress Blog L2: 2020

7/27/2020

As of  7/17/2020 I have changed to painting and have started with the same Kaupapa/theme (losing my culture and blending into the culture around me.) I am gonna be painting a lot of eyes specifically open and closed eyes to signify 'opening my eyes to a different culture' and eyes in the background signify 'people watching my every move' this shows how I feel pressured to fit into the community around me, especially since I have moved a lot in my life and have had the opportunity to experience different cultures. This board is gonna show how I lost most of my culture trying to fit into a 'white' culture, to feel valid.

The painting/sketches below are the backbones of my board and I'm gonna be working on a lot more pieces after this post. 

This is a design I'm working on to put on the pieces that show the Indian culture just so it's different from the other pieces and also because this design is quite common in 'Hand arts'. 

The eyes that I mentioned earlier signifying the change in culture and trying to fit in.  

Sketches of Indian women and more eyes. This is loose sketches of what I want on a particular piece and what elements I want to have in said piece.

  

Photography level 2 Art 2020: Line 2

11th Feb 2020

Level 2: What is my kaupapa?

This year my visual arts course will be focused on Photography. This is my first year of Photography because I didn't take it last year. Photography is a strong passion of mine so I am lucky to make it into the class despite not doing it last year. My Kaupapa for this yeah will be based around spiritual and cultural development, because I think I can closely relate to this topic as I am someone who has had the privilege to experience many cultures. 

I've gone through the artists in my theme on the matrix found on AKO and created my mood board here:

From here, I have decided on Olivia Parker, Mark Adams and Bill Brandt as my artist models for 2.1. These artists will also help me get started with 2.2 which is the folio. 

We did brainstorms on our themes for our boards which is here:

My brainstorm is generally about culture and how, many cultures combined make up my beliefs and my ideas based around different cultures and Beliefs
