Dinner and A Movie Final Image/ Artist Statement

 

Statement:

    This project was introduced to us as a way to physically represent a film, either well known or not mainstreamed, in the form of a place of sitting at the dinner table getting ready to eat a meal. For this film, I chose the popular mainstream films of "Fast and the Furious" and the idea was to best represent some of the main aspects on the series. Showing the constructive side rather than the close family ties and action adventured scenes and high speed pursuits these films have spoiled us with.

    Since the series is mainly set around main characters who are very mechanically gifted I wanted to represent it as such. The overall symmetry represented in the tools shows how they were organized and centered when it came to planning out their vehicles, primarily being methodical. The tire and the tank show the creative aspect of unit, mainly how the combine interesting modifications to their vehicles to get whatever job done smart and effectively. The bowl in the center with a mix of screws and nuts and bolts shows their collective thinking, with the lock showing commitment to their rides as they travel the open road.
