art history photo essay

DLSC Main Bldg.
(Milagros del Rosario Bldg, inspired by designer Leandro V. Locsin)

Shipshape Windows
Like the windows of the Colosseum of Rome, DLSC main bldg. has the square or the boxed-style windows. It shows peace and order because of its equal measurements.



Sthonchused Top. Inspired by the structure of Egyptian's art, pyramid. The triangular style with the university's name on it shows integrity and faith to its doctrine.


Puissance Stands
Inspired by the columns of different Roman structures, also with the pyramid form above. Located at the main entrance of the building, this shows the strength that builds up the confidence of the school.


Up to Top
Inspired by the Greek post-lintel. This shows stability and how the school can stand up to give the students good future.



Window on the Roof
Inspired by the Mesopotamian style. DLSC will not ground you for the rest of your college. There is still the freedom that a person must have.

my classmates's awesome mandalas

waddup waddup?! all eyes on my classmates' mandalas! 


This is Dianne's mandala. The first thing that came to my mind was that she's sooooo in love. There are big hearts surrounding little hearts, just full of hearts! I think that's a flower in the center that shows how happy she is :)



Liane's mandala's awesome :> It looks so neat and orderly. The symbols she used probably represent expressions or feelings such as happiness (for butterfly), anger (for fire), confusion (for spiral), strength (for triskelion).





I understood cj's mandala more because I know her well :D Her mandala shows who she really is --- she treasures friendship, shows her love for music, shows her creativity and shows how she adores life.





Ate Taki's mandala looks so incredible. It's full of details and creativity. I also saw many smiley faces which probably show that she's cheerful person. The cross prolly shows her adoration to her religion. Also, heart for love.




Dhin's mandala probably represents a lot of things for a lot of things :D Such as peace (peace sign), sadness and happiness (the left and right eyes, respectively), problems (different colors on the left and right side), blessing from God (butterflies), faith in God (tree). Really nice :)
