How will the finished structure be fabricated: it will be made out of sheet metal
Artist Narrative:
My sculpture was for the city of Litchfield in Minnesota, and Litchfield tends to have a lot of Cafes and coffee shops in the town. The town has a lot of them coming in and out so I decided to make a consistent mug for the town. The light color is meant to blend in with the snow and the light clouds on foggy days, just like the coffee shops blend right into the town. My experience making this was a complicated one because I am not the best with clay, but my actual sculpture will look smoother and much more round. I had troubles with making it smooth like an actual coffee mug. The mug again was supposed to be representative of the coffee shops and was supposed to be rounder like the mugs that are seen in the shops. My project would enhance the community by adding the sense if togetherness to Central park that can be seen in the actual shops themselves. Everyone likes a good cup of coffee.
