BOKA Powell was initially commissioned to conduct an in-depth business analysis and prepare the building program for new apartment housing at the University of Texas at El Paso, and was subsequently selected to deliver the project as a part of a Design-Build team. The building program was intended to give the selected design team a “workbook” that would provide guidelines for creating new architecture that conforms to the greater campus fabric.
The ancient design concepts of Bhutanese architecture that provided the inspiration for the University of Texas at El Paso campus inspired the BOKA Powell design team in creating a housing precinct that fosters a sense of community, security and identity. The “fortress” housing blocks are sited in a way that minimizes disturbance to the terrain, while creating a series of focused courtyards and quiet space for the inhabitants. Adherence to modern accessibility standards was juxtaposed with the need to reflect the fortress nature of the historic model. Ramping and stairways are carefully integrated as recessive features of the building massing.
SUPPLY LIST: stretched canvas, acrylic paint, dictionary page, sheet music, rubber stamps, gesso, stock photo, gel medium, beeswax, ribbon, buttons, branches, flowers, raw canvas
TIPS: For “Her Hero”, I applied an acrylic stain to a pre-stretched canvas, and then covered with a dictionary page. Old paper is thin enough that when adhered with a wet medium, the color bleeds through. For the image transfer, I first painted the area with gesso so the image would not blend into the background. . When dried, I pressed the image into wet gel medium to transfer the image. Beeswax is used over the image and the words in the top left corner-this also works as a resist for the top wash of acrylic paint. The flowers and branches are tied together using a scrap of raw canvas and adhered using hot beeswax.
