(Chen Chek Seng) 's cube

The cube i designed is all about me. It represent, interpret, and identify my personalities.


My first class:
I was just informed about this assignment and totally lost from my first step. Then, i answered questions given by my tutor Miss Chiok. Among all the questions i answered only one and made it a mind map for my future progression. The chosen question is "What type of girl i like". I answered this question in mind map
This is my source of idea

The next step: I decide to move slightly out of this direction to the others and ask myself Among these requirement about the girls i like . What about me? And i realise its all about me. The concept of my box is "mask"  People have their own invisible mask that covers up the things they want to hide when interact with people, so what is the thing behind the mask ? I have my own mask that covers my emotion, different mask represent different situation and atttitude.


So , the craft and methods of the box are inspired by the musical instrument above. It has a flexibility to expand and close up again. 
Form and function: My cube are basically in shape of a present box. It has illustrated mask surround and each  
represent different meaning depends on audience perspective. The cap of the cube has 4 mask , it can cover in 4 ways to the 4 faces on the cube below, And follow by the 2 of the faces can be expand to see the inner faces and true emotion of my personalities . The smiley face outside with a sad face inside indicate  the contrast of emotion against reality. and so on vice versa.
Below are the progression:
