I first developed the interest in art and design back in kindergarten. As time pass by, I found myself have strong interest in not only designing something, but also turning the design into something realistic. In architecture, we naturally take pride and enjoy the process from beginning until the end. We have to constantly go back and forth between thinking. Therefore, what i aspired to achieve in this subject is to strengthen my critical thinking skills which able to take an issue and break it down into smallest components and analyze it from every single angle. Furthermore, I wish to learn every single idea from peers to help widen my very limiting ideas that have accumulated throughout my life.

How would you construe the current assignment in d:CON 4 |
The assignment given named as "Descriptive Installation". Evidently, we are assigned to narrate the story from Sybil Kathigasu's "No Dram of Mercy" into an installation. From my opinion, this would be a very subjective task as it is less accurate to evaluate a student’s performance by academically based or its appearance, rather it should focus on the specific demand and own understanding, for example the meaning it going to express and the personal testimonials. The ways of thoughts after reading this novel would be the main connection to this narrative installation, so i found this assignment fun and interesting as everyone one of us will come up with a very unique masterpiece based on own unique understanding. Furthermore, there will be a wide range of elements and materials to be chosen to interpret the story line as the story can be broken down into several scenes.
