I starded to fixate the parameters, measurements and the main orizontals and verticals as I usually did normally in an project for athitecture.First I started to experiment which shape would suit the island better in google sketch up by constructing platform connected by stairs as that would be the skeleton of the construction,.I saw the word as an intreg And I did not treat each lelev separtly as the whole complex shold be link together not only by the style and arhitecture but also it shold be balanced and flow smothly .
One of the mai priorities was to find an angle that will present the best features of the construction and lighten the most favorable part of it but still show the action on both sides , the reality on a side and the concet on the other.However the distracting element, the stars had to be enought tonned dow'n not to incarca the composition but clear enought to confer the concept of the passage between the word, You cold descend deeper in to the word level but the route you chose can infuence the experiences .The stairs system is meant to explore the reality ideea of decadere and they are not fulfilling the the usual task .moreover the function part is not enphasisesed, there is not a plain clean route created by them but rather and descriptiv one :In life there is not a straight road, not even to damnation.My original ideea was o make each staircase from 12 stairs but that failed on the designing part, the clear number and stif format took away from the expresivity of the word so I had to erase that semnification and see them as mere gater thruthe others realm.
colorless,shapeless. an nd without any identity or accent the staircase are a reflection of the enviroment.The building are shattering them, the plant broke out from thei shape and people don't pay anyattention to them.They are the siple personification of the road in life , you don't notice your rod to shcool ,you just walk and look around, you don't even pay attention to the pavaj while you are on your way to an interviw.Just imagine how important is only the presence of him , you are constructing your future, walking and standing on concry on gorund, on a surface without a face, patata by the environmen. This surfce is suporting your steps between you and your goals, life ,future, however is faceless, If al the passages in life will just give up, thnk about alunecari de teren,cutremure then we would be trraped in a single place, helpless and not being abble toinainta.

Humans are creatures of the ground.however we could not care less abut that. Our path in life is constructed on mere ground in reality and projected in our thoughts.In concusion we walk on meaningless surface without a personality thru our next stages in life,so the stairs, the impersonarea of the path is faceless as well ,shaped only by the sourendings
STEP2
Drawing
I started by fixing 2 puncte de fuge and tracing guide lines . and delimitating the margini with a brief image of the word silueth then with the help of wo rullers and aA mecannic pen I draw a perspective of the levels ,connecting them by a system of stairs that were only on the designing stage ,as The stairs had to complete the drawing by linking each level but not no distract the viwe.
In order to make the image more expresive I moved the points closer together and I starded to exagerate certain areas making them pop.
After finishing the construction I took a short break and I let it all settle in ,taking my eyes from the paper a while In order to be able to coe back later and see it with a more obiectiv eyes. Along the year I leared how not to be attached by my work and see it as an outsider, as how my public will se it.Is the final product clear enought to transmit the chosed message but mysterious enought to make the viwer reseach more, is is powerfull enought , will it iese in evidenta from the others.
After 20 minutues I came back and notice some impotant pagination mistakes,I took some time to take a coloured pen and tace the modification ,as well as shifting the whole silueth to the right more, as the middle part was to veavy I needed a balance in the top part,a balance that will be only made by coulour and tones.This was not just a matter of how the word will present itself and by aestetic but follow a strict pattern and a concept, the 7 sin , the deeper you go in the word levles the more mesmarasing it should be as the oal was not to let the person leave and imata his senses .By manipulating him with the wonder of the sins the indivudual would be made to think that this is his own option and chose to wonder deeper and deeeper in to the word.Once you descend more the harder is to come back to the first level and escape this odd labyrint
Step 3
Photoshop
After Scanning the word skeleton in the different part, top middle viw and the bottom due the large format of the page I reconstructed the drawing on a new page.The goal was to keep the quality as hight as possible so later I cuted the page in 4 equal part and I refined each part in parte to make the process quiker and allow my computer to work on optimal viteza.
Afer cleaning and curing the page of all the extra and useless lines I started to put together all the other already prepared arhitectural emlement ,from the human silueths to the building and trees and find a saisfaing placement for each.The whole composition was alcatuita while the page was not yeat impartita.
