<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\nI love the way wire can be used to represent nature, and wire trees show that the best in my opinion. The way the wire is wrapped shows the lines and flow of the branches, and foliage can be so vibrant in comparison to the shiny wire. I would love to incorporate these pieces into the artwork.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-a24\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/33\/2024\/09\/Screenshot-2024-09-09-130700-1-1024x315.jpg\")

Materials<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
I am uncertain as to what material I will use currently, but options include plastic, glass, resin, or paper. I currently have a strong interest in resin, which with a bit of coloring can illuminate beautifully. However, french beaded flowers, made of glass beads, also glow very well when light passes through. Lastly, plastic can give the opaque look while still diffusing the color, however I am unsure as to where I would acquire this type of plastic, much less be able to mold it. Paper would not hold up well to elements, but is likely the cheapest option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Artist Questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n- Any suggestions on materials?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Suggestions on incorporating sensors into the piece?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- At what scale should this project be?\n
\n- How many plants?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- How many types of plants?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

Concept For my project, I hope to create a floral composition with lights incorporated. Flowers and trees, especially ones made up of unnatural materials, have always interested me greatly and held a ethereal feeling of beauty. I want to encapsulate that feeling through this art piece.
