Karly and Rose's Project & Artist's Statement

For our project, Rose and I decided to do a camera. We first had the idea of putting lights inside the hula hoop, but we thought that we be too much and it couldn't be used afterwards. Both of us enjoy photography and Rose just happened to have an old camera in the house that we could take apart. So we figured, let's light up a camera. We had many different ideas of where we wanted everything to light, but we finally came up with an idea. The camera was emptied inside, except for the lens. For the final sculpture, we had a 4 lightbulbs in a series, 2 replacing the flash, and 2 showing in the screen. The switch is the button you press down to take a picture. After all the hard work and planning, we were very happy with the final result.
