The Annexe: Out of Lines + Competition

OUT OF LINE: Doodles & Dreamscapes

Art Exhibition

Date: 29 May 2008 (Thu) to 15 Jun 2008 (Sun)

Venue: The Annexe Gallery

Exhibition opening: Thu 29 May, 8pm

Admission: Free

Society and authorities draw lines around us everyday. What can we do about it? We draw more lines, of course. The Annexe Gallery presents 15 artists who were asked to create works with lines, but who were also challenged to step out of line. They show us how little or how much is needed to step beyond the line that prevents us from expressing ourselves. Have imagination, will travel!

The artists: Avroco, Chang Yoong Chia, Cheeway, Daniel Chong, Jerome Kugan, K Soon, Melissa Lin, Mun Kao, Pang Khee Teik, Saharil Hasrin Sanin, Sharil Nizam, Tey Beng Tze, They, Why, Wong Eng Leong.

Special note to interested collectors: This is a plum opportunity to purchase works at a steal as all the art are priced under RM1,000. Interested art buyers are encouraged to attend a special preview on Wed 28 May.

For enquiries, please contact:

RANDOM : I THINK HOLIDAY IS SUPER SWEET TOO

Hi there!

Dear FA people,

My first time posting here, finally! Well, seems like you guys have had a wonderful FA night, congrats. Sorry that I've missed the fun. It's nice to see you guys so close. University life as students are the best, I wish you enjoy every bit of it. Surprise and happy to see the link to Evolutionary Girls' Club. So someone did pay attention while either me or Sau Bin talking! If you would, you can put up the link to this blog as well: www.emacm.blogspot.com. This is the blog of our local artists collective, EMACM and SicKL. Check out our events from time to time!
Lastly, like your mentor Moon said during the FA screening at E-gallery, and sharing with you all here - you need to go out, go out, go out and get a life! Be curious! Explore art, explore yourself, people, culture, society, the world! Live completely, don't just stuck in front of your computer accepting brainwashed information! Get a life, think independently, learn sincerely, don't waste your youth!
I wish you a very meaningful and fun life ahead!
Between, congrats to those who are graduating!

Cheers,
Ms. Siew Wai

Yet Another Robot...

Yeah...its been a while since i post up sumthing here. Since the robot topic is really something that i have interest in, i might as well post a response here. So..this is a 3D robot model i did for a part time job sometime during the midterm break last semester. Its done with 3ds max 9 + Maxwell Render. Any C&C is welcomed. :D

Btw..for some reason, i have to pixellate the logo on the robot's chest. :p

Robot Wobot Mobot!

Yeahhhhhh just responding to kit's last post. so yeah! a wobot head!
based on motiofixo's logo (3 circles). a company where i used to do part time job (gamma) and my internship (currently).

come and visit our new website layout! http://www.motiofixo.com

Experiment on ROBOT

Hi everyone, FA Fondue Night rocks! Do you guys enjoy it? I enjoyed rocking the chocolate chips before it melts xD and for the first time, 2 hair dryers became our heroes.

Holidaysssssssssssss... and I'm so free. So, I take out my tablet and wanted to draw something. Normally I don't draw any other things except human. I'm weak in drawing buildings, cars, furnitures, animals...... anything. I can't imagine their shape in my mind.

However, I wanted to do something different today > (

So, I decided to try on robots, because... they look like human.

This is my first quick sketch which is...... very horrible.

I post it up is not to give you an eyesore but I know that many of you are good in mechanical drawings. I thought you might have some comments and advices.

I would like to see how you guys design a robot too. Since we are so free now, we can have a robot session here. Everyone post up their own robot to share :D Different design different style.

Lastly, wanna wish all of us good luck in internship. See you next sem.

Gobelins

Wow…. Seem like everyone had a wonderful FA Fondue last nite. Chocolate~~ my favorites~~ Too bad I couldn’t join the fun..:( Too rush for me….

But anyway… I have something new to share ……

Anyone heard of Gobelins?

Anyone? Yes? No? Gobelins Art School….. Yup is a famous Art School base in Paris. Every year the students in Gobelins produce high standard art pieces, animation included of course. I believe everyone saw the animation “Le building” before…rite? Yup… is done by a group of students there. Besides that “Le Building” there is plenty of great 3D works come out from the school every year.

Below is the link to the school galleries…

http://www.gobelins.fr/galerie/animation/

Below is another link to one of my favorite animation short movie “Burning Safari”. It’s from Gobelins too….It is not a new animation anymore… but is still worth watching. Great animation, great modeling, great cinematography and humorous~~

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0UmVrKC9hA

And there is a making of for that animation clips. Watch it too; I believe you can gain a lot from there.

The making of burning safari

Ermm…….What if I ask everyone of the gamma students to set Gobelins as your target for next year FYP…. Can you beat them? Or at least equal to the standard that they have display? Tough rite… still has long long way to go….but no harm…. You aim higher and you will climb faster to reach it. Maybe 1 day MMU FA will become the talking point of all the art school in the world… or maybe next year will be that year…. Who knows who knows…. Haha…

Well… enjoy the galleries… ;)

Cheers again,

Lawliet
