PJ: Has Division grown on you with time, how is it different looking at it now?
Brandi: It has grown on me. I created ‘Division’ about a year ago for my senior show. I thought this was one of my strongest pieces. My math teacher ended up buying it. Division-haha. I haven’t seen it in person in about a year. Knowing a piece isn’t mine anymore always changes my experience of it. And not seeing this or even really thinking of it at all for so long makes me see it with fresh eyes. I think I always understand my work more with time. At first creation I wonder, ‘where’d that come from, what’s that about?’
PJ: Can you describe one part of it you really enjoy, or dislike?
Brandi: The architectural sketches in blue pen are my grandfathers–on an envelope from the 60’s. This piece was built around and inspired by his drawing-very sentimental. A collaboration across time and space, neat-o.
