Semester 1:
- School improvement project
Zombie Apocolypse project
Project artist statement:
My project for engineering class is an improvised piece of armor that has several pieces of aluminium on it for protection. We drilled holes first and then sewed the aluminum onto a leather jacket. At first, our group was set on an alternative idea- A suit of armor that is similar to a dog bite suit, but with critical critique and coming together as a group we found it best to scrap that idea and create a more streamlined product. The idea of having a piece of armor in a zombie wasteland, is to assert dominance over other survivors and to protect yourself from getting bitten. The aluminum allows the person being attacked by zombies to be protected from bites and scratches. This ties in with our idea because our graphic novel is set in the climax of a zombie apocalypse, so it hard to live in this world without getting attacked by zombies.
