Retrieved from https://prism.ucalgary.ca. doi:10.11575/PRISM/26173http://hdl.handle.net/11023/1104The materiality of these works is not confined specifically to a digital, sculptural, two dimensional, or mechanical representation of an idea, instead the ideas are explored with materials that best suit the intention of the works. The thesis work, Hypotyposis, is a sculptural model of various fictional worlds that continually appear as a topic in science fiction films. These topics are often a metaphor for an idea or a thing that challenges humanity and changes how we view the world we live in. Hypotyposis is presented to the viewer as a realistic interpretation of a space and its intentions are to suspend the viewer’s disbelief, if only for a moment. The intention of this work is also to explore the relationship between the world as we experience it and the world found in fiction.engUniversity of Calgary graduate students retain copyright ownership and moral rights for their thesis.
