So what did I do?

Assalamualaikum.

I don't usually do this. 

Project 1 - Painting.

Theme: Water gives, water takes

Title: Granted

Ar-Rum 41

This, A1-sized. Orang lain beli canvas but since sedar diri tak reti nk melukis, I wouldn't want to spend my money on the canvas, I just bought an illustration board. ahahaha. kedekut tak kedekut...

Project 2 - Wood carving

Theme: Nature

Title : The Flow

Concept: Habluminallah, habluminannas

 I forgot the dimension.

This is actually for GC Exercise, computer graphic. 

But alang-alang cerita pasal project 3, letak sini lah.

Project 3 - Concept Box

Title: Journey Through Deceptions 

Concept: Mirage 

40cm x 40cm x 40cm

Final project : Partner dengan Aaminah Faiz, she did all the hard work , paku2 semua. :D:D Aa tough!

Project 4: Sunshade prototype

Title: Guided

Concept: Origami

Minimum size : 1.2m x 1.0m x 1.0m

Know what, there's one thing I like about these stuffs I'm doing. 

Being in IIUM, you know, International ISLAMIC University Malaysia, the lecturers keep saying that we need to be different than those in other art schools.

Ada banyak objektif kalau bukak project brief. Tapi there's one crucial thing: Students are to present the ideas and are to demonstrate the essense of Islamic values and principles in applied arts and design. 

So we needed to have at least one Quranic verse or Hadith, related to our projects, each and every one of us, for each and every project. 

We needed to prepare a report, project summary, title, explaining the concept and all that, which means, we had to do some reading. So yeah, I learnt a lot for the first semester. 

Eh jap. these, were what I did for my design subject only. 

We had GC, Graphic Communication and Presentation, setiap hari Selasa. 

Semua orang rasa mcm nak gi perang je masuk kelas ni. ahahha. 

Preparing ourselves for the real world, bak kata Brother Ariff.

Then History of Art. uhuhuh. Daripada primitive or Mesopotamian, Ancient Egypt, Greek, Roman, Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque, Pre-modern and Modern arts segala.. I don't like history but, seronok pulak rasa subjek ni, despite the nude statues and paintings yang bersepah-sepah. hahah.

Then Appreciation of Asian Arts and Design... Thiiiiis......  .. cane nk ckp. cani lah, we learnt traditional Malay arts basically, and ada sikit2 Indian and Chinese arts. 

All those terms in Songket, TYPES OF BATIK, their techniques of production bagai... 

Those were the subjek wajib lah kira untuk first semester. 

I took Quran Sunnah and Built Environment as well as Study Circle II some more :)

Ada yang amek BM and UNGS or Islamic Worldview..

I know this is waaay too early nak cakap, but I'm glad I made this decision, alhamdulillah. 

Applied arts and design it is. 

Do pray I'll make it through these coming years. :) 

Segan sebenarnya nak tunjuk sebab cek punya tak lawa mana. 

Tambah lak lejenderi follow kita.. alamak. 

HAHA.
