shadow on monument


two concepts of my monument are creative use of light (Luis Barragan) and contrast (Farshid Moussavi).  Now I got an ideal from Russell's lecture is that I will use the shadow ( as you can see on the flat white board) to create an special TEXTURE for the idea creative use of light. I was about to use artificial light and transparent material and show in the night time to enhance the contrast between the monument and environment. Now I have to rewrite my concept for electroliquid aggregation, below are my two questions:

1. Do you think my idea that use shadow as a special texture fit the concept " creative use of light "?

2. My new concept of electroliquid aggregation is " use the shadows on the monument to enhance dynamic structure. " Is it appropriate?

Electroliquid Aggregation

Two concepts:


Luis Barragan:
  • creative use of light
Farshid Moussavi:
  • contrast

electroliquid aggregation:

  • Use shadows and structure to enhance the contrast between the monument and environment surrounded.

week2: EXP2 CryEngine 3 Environment




Environment:

In  week2's independent study, I roughly designed the landscape with a river, riverbank, some flat space for people standing or carparking, little hills and finally the vegetarian covering the surface of hills.

My monument: 

My monument's ideas are based on "creative use of light" from Luis Barragan and "contrast" from Farshid Moussavi. The reason that I combined them together in stead of separating them is these two concepts are actually parallel which means they do not have any similarity of any conflict. So I can use"contrast" to show the difference between my monument and the environment, I can use " creative use of light" to get a unique way of sunlight covering on my monument.

Below is my drawing from sketchbook.
