Kendall Buster
Kendall is an accomplished student who earned a BFA degree from the Corcoran college of art and design and an MFA in sculpture from Yale. Her work has been exhibited all over the USA as well as other countries. I really like this artists work because it looks very planned out and it looks like she has spend a lot of time on it. It is communicating light in a very light way. I'm responding this way because I really enjoy Buster's work. The material communicates the light so it is a very important part in all of her pieces. The form is bug-like in all of the structures whether they are made of steel, tents, or nylon. These pieces are beautiful to look at because they are so big and sometimes you can even walk inside of them.

This piece of work is very environmental and green. It's communicating fluid lines and huge proportions. I think that I'm responding this way because all of this work is industrial and nothing that I would exactly want to do. I don't really like this work because it doesn't really look man made, it looks like nature. The material makes it seem very environmental which gives it a very earthy feel as well as the form. I imagine all of these pieces smelling like ground or the forest. These artists are using these materials to create forms of nature, things that we see in rural areas of the world. They reference rocks, ladders, and wood to create all of their pieces. These are common every day elements that we see all around us, every single day.
