Transformations
A transformation is a change in form or appearance.
We were to find seven identical objects and apply a transformation of form to each of those objects.
The objects I chose were 7 cubes made out of carton paper and tape.
DISTORTION
is the act of distorting, so the condition of being distorted which is expressed by cutting and folding inwards part of each face of the cube.
SYMMETRICAL
it can be said that is the possess or display of symmetry, in this case is shown by cutting the cube in two equal parts.
ASYMMETRICAL
is the characteristic of asymmetry in the spatial arrangement , so it is irregular in shape or outline.
ADDITIVE
which is the addition of something on something else that is represented by adding a piece of carton paper triangle shape to one of the cubes.
SUBTRACTIVE
involves of produces a subtraction so removing or subtracting something from something else. One face of the cube has a triangle missing.
ABSTRACTION
the vocabulary would describe this transformation as "the act of abstracting", but it is much more complex because it can be expressed in infinite ways and so is so various that is hard to describe. I applied the transformation of abstraction on this cube by sitting on it, pressing and squashing it obtaining an example of abstraction.
FRAGMENTATION
which means breaking, fragment in less pieces.
Transformation is what a Landscape Architect is involved when is to deal with a project.
