The Huts

The Huts represents a color, light, and shadow study. As an autodidact, I use every piece to learn something new. The architectural figure here is a Sudanese straw hut. Known for its ability to withstand heavy rain, it’s built in cooling structure to mitigate heat, and its ability to maintain warmth during the winter. Genius design with a simple look. My intention was to use pinks and purples, while showing light coming from the left, evidenced by its partner shadows. These three huts represent my big brothers and I. Me being the small one.
