Week 1 Sketchup

Sketch:

Above: grow / Weiwei
Below: voyeur / Bourgeois

For this model before feedback, I also went ahead and sketched some ideas for stairs and how it would fit together.

I focused on the below ground part and considered the key word "voyeur". I liked the idea of a platform on the stairs to be able to peek just above ground, while for the stairs, I tried to capture an air of something sturdy, but at the same time quiet empty and hollow. (That's just what the word feels like to me). I also considered how the artist (Louise Bourgeois) would move around in this space. She is a sculptor, so transporting her work to the ground level gallery space would require broad steps with low rises.
