The public toilet marks my 4th venture in model-making.
Wtf.? Yes, we hv design ze toilets. Absurd, but comprehendible. Anthro + ergo, people tend to disregard these things. Include myself in that bracket. I dont choose to ignore it, but we simply dont. Who gives a shyt when you piss or poop. When you hv to go, you hv to go. Ah, but that's when I'm wrong. And so are you.
And i suppose model-making forces you to deal with this things. To take issues of negligence to matter. Like who would consider the pipings and fusebox in designing a model rite. In this case, how big should da potty be.? Railings for the handicapped.? Waddabout the washbasin for kids.? We obviously flawed a tad bit dere, but they'll grow.
  
Did i mention how excruciatingly rewarding the task at hand can be. I mean really, you stay stationary at the same spot, you slog your way. The experience is agonizing yet when the visual of your labour materializes you jump for joy. Your body remains motionless, but ur fingers work, they dance. Like a poet enscribing a poem, an artist crafting a sculpture. Oh ftw, I am an artist. haha.
Moreover, the joy of make-believe. A site.? New York, lah. Why.? Got Friends building ma, Monica and Chandler's apartment there. Why apartment.? Readapt it then, readaptive-use produce wonders. Art museum, artsy fartsy abit. The New New York Art Museum it is.
And what good is an art gallery without it's art pieces. It's not vulgar or profane, just provocative. InDeep5h*t ma.
Oh and im oh so proud of the potty. Pretty potty. And the toilet roll. It's usable, mind you. And the push-for-flush. No.1 and no.2, does both ur biznesses at the same time. Dainty shyts, who knew the human fingers could comply with such work.
The concept has been used, the old versus the new. Think KLPac, or even Heeren of some sorts. Develop on the approach, we get a totally different tone altogether. Old container sheets, reused, restored in a manner in which respects it's original condition. Employ mod vent ducts, semi-translucent, the feeling of the contemporaneous. Complemented with wire mesh patterns + glass screenings, one can truly appreciate both the conflict and convergence intended to be perceived.
No doubt, this modular masterpiece is a product of consorted labour. Which makes it all the more sweeter. Never expected an elective subject to be so taxing, IBS is conquered. Take that, Visual Comm ppl.
Haha, fine. I plead guilty. Obviously not my work. Failed miserably in my attempt.
