WEEK 7 / 15.05.2023
This week, we were trying to do our finalise. We haven't gotten GSK's feedback but we got Ms Lilian's feedback. We're so confused about how to start our final. We started by thinking about the final size and taking out the medicine from the packaging.

Then I bought the whole PVC because the height that I want exceeds the half height already.

WEEK 7 / 17.05.2023
We finished collecting, managing, and grouping all the blisters pack. We also count it to get the blister packs amount.

WEEK 7 / 18.05.2023
First I bought the spray paints, L bracket, screw, PVC cutter, and thinner in MR DIY. Here is the receipt.

Then I cut it the base part into several parts, approximately 6 cm.

Then moved to the root part. I try to cut it and join them. I plan to join them with an L bracket using the drill. I borrowed my friend's drill.

Then I try to drill it, however, it was loose id only the PVC. I thought to buy block wood but I can't find it. Then I have an idea to make it secure using toilet roll paper. I used the big one so the roll inside is thick enough and it's stable.

I put it in and took a picture for asking my groupmates' agreement.

WEEK 8 / 22.05.2023
I continue to make the fish but I forgot to take a picture. Then I focus on the root. I adjust the joint of the roots again and need some revisions so I cut it some more to make it precise to connect with the main trump (but I also forgot to take a picture again, too focused).
Then to make it stable, I plan to tie it with wire and it works. First, I separate the wire into one layer (because it contains 4 layers in one wire), so that can fit in the hole (drill hole), and it took so long time. I drill the pole first, then through the hole, I tied the pole with the other pole using 1 layer of wire. Thank God it works and is stable, I was doubting myself a lot about this.

Then my friend colours the fish and other sea creatures. My idea is to make the fish stay transparent and I put light to make it outstanding. However, my leader and one of the members suddenly just change it without discussing it with the group. I was disappointed in them for colouring it. I remember that after receiving Ms Lilian's feedback, we just stick to 3 colours only (purple, blue, and pink), not too much so that the audience will not be overwhelmed or confused while seeing it. But they make it so vibrant, all colours are there. I'm really scared that the fish and the other sea creatures will blend with each other. If individuals, it looks pretty, but not in a group. I'm so sad.

WEEK 8 / 23.05.2023
First, we make the volume of the tree using paper.

Then Luisa, Shaocheng and I make the branches and roots using twisted papers. Then for the branches, we put the wire around to make it solid.
Fig. / Roots and Branches, Week 8 (23.05.2023)
At this time suddenly the AC and the plug-in studio room not working. After last week the AC also not working, the room become so smelly and so hot. I almost vomit because of the situation, all the medicine bags are very dirty and disgusting. It was the worst. Then we complain about the AC again so we continue our work outside.

WEEK 8 / 24.05.2023
After finished putting the branches, I put fish wire on the branch with the main pole so that it won't fall.

WEEK 8 / 26.05.2023
I make the seaweed from leftovers in the wave part. I use a lighter and then my friend colours it.

WEEK 8 / 27.05.2023
We thought that we can finish it by Friday, turns out that we need 1 more day. However, every Saturday I can't join to finalize the art installation. So this is my friends' work.
We only left to put all the leaves and stick sea creatures.

REFLECTION
Experience
I experience a lot of things in this module. I feel like this module is my minor project. It's been a while for me to make handcraft things. This is my first time making such a big art installation. I would say I'm quite good with miniatures, but not sure about art installation. I'm glad that I can experience the drill, PVC cutter, lighters, etc. I feel like I can become a worker already. Besides the art itself, I also learned a lot of things in a group. I learned a lot of types of humans and learned how to handle and forgive them. It's not that easy but I am grateful to experience all of these. It's interesting how I can experience the medicine thing, which should be sensitive content. It feels like a love-and-hate relationship with this module. I love how our effort makes a beautiful piece, but I hate the process and the idea thinking.
Observation
I observed that behind the beautiful art need to have a beautiful meaning also. For my group, I can say that our installation is beautiful, but the meaning is not that deep. However we did what we can do already with the limited time, but GSK did not really understand what we wanted to express. I observe other groups' work also. Blister Bunch is diligent and their idea is nice, however, the art installation is a bit too small. So can't really attract people. Dream Team is not diligent at all, they did it all at the last minute, however, their presentation and the meaning are good.
Finding
I found myself enjoying these processes. I am also grateful that I learned miniatures before so I can give a lot of suggestions about the materials and the stability. I am also grateful that I can collaborate with Nutquacker, with amazing people. I learned a lot from them. I learned how to less talk and do more from Shaocheng. I learned how to be the biggest supporter from Luisa. I learned to be diligent and disciplined from Tressa. I learned to think out of the box from Sea. Thank God we can finish it before the deadline. I'm so proud of my group and I am really grateful to have Ms Lilian as our lecturer. She is a good lecturer and designer.
