Candy-Coated

Amos, Michelle L.

Abstract Details

2007, Master of Fine Arts, Ohio State University, Art.
For my thesis exhibition I have created an installation, Candy-Coated, in the Hoyt L. Sherman Studios on The Ohio State University's campus. The installation is a fourteen-foot high space that contains a variety of sculptural objects, mixed-media drawings, and paper objects. I primarily use materials from craft stores like glitter, rhinestones, and chenille stems. In the thesis exhibition these materials have been transformed into objects like tree stumps, small hills, a bird, and paper flowers. In pieces that were not shown in the thesis exhibition craft materials are used in drawings and other sculptural objects. Candy-Coated is based on memories of my parents' back yard. It is a psychedelic space that relies heavily on formal elements like color and pattern.
