My Architecture'S Personal Statement 

Architecture is all about balance, like the balance between our ears that allows humans to appreciate music. Architecture and music are closely related because both art forms hide the complexity of the processes involved in their creation. Architecture is as ''complex and abstract as music''. This what Daniel Libeskind and I think. I believe that architecture is like ''frozen music'', that communicates to humans' souls to present the atmosphere of notable buildings. My choice to study this subject at University stems from this idea. I am fascinated about how a simple sketching of building can show an architect's hard work to the audience and how it can also present a new positive energy for a place of social culture. In addition, I am fascinated by its breath of concern and how architects have started using technology like 3D printers to speed up the time spent on creating architectural scale models. I have a dream to be an architect involved in creating a positive future for my country and other countries like Iraq, Syria or any country that still suffering from war. I believe that the point of being an architect is to improve human life.

The other reason that makes me excited to study this course is that I would like to know more about how to create civic spaces that contain millions of square feet of museums, transportations, houses and shops. Also, I'm excited to learn how to design things with physical models. Furthermore, in the future I hope that I can explore how to get inspiration from nature in its structure and beauty rather than just reading it in a book such as architecture theory. However, through my art interests outside my secondary school I have been drawn increasingly to those architectural styles that employ the structural arts and ornamental with creative minds to improve our planet. For me I believe that architecture is placed between art and science which is so exciting and this what made me choose chemistry, biology and physics when I was doing my higher secondary school exams in 2015 in Sudan.

In addition, I was doing other subjects like Arabic, maths, English and Islamic studies. I passed all my subject with score of 70%. This year I'm doing a foundation diploma in art and design at Solihull College. I chose to study this course because I would like to explore a range of different art techniques to help me to develop my own creative style. In this course, I have been studying art history through gallery visits, life drawing, video production, photography, textiles and printmaking. All of these workshops have helped me to gain a lot of skills, which will be absolutely useful in my future life. Also, this year I'm redoing English and maths GCSE. In 2015 I got an amazing opportunity to attend architecture events in my secondary school in Sudan where I was able to talk to a range of architects. From that event I got a lot of tips of how I can improve my drawing through using an app called Auto Cap to draw a 3D house model. At that event a lot of architects suggested that I should do a lot of work experience, which could help me to improve my communication and team working skills as I will need it in my career and future life. And this what I did last year. I have enrolled to work as volunteer at Efa Foundation.

Also, when I was doing level 2 in Moseley Sixth Form I got such an amazing opportunity to be a reading leader for the whole year. Also, I worked in a flower shop for one week. These three work experiences have helped me to be able to clearly communicate with other people. Also, I got the ability to motivate the people that I was working with to achieve our common goals. My range of interests, from ecology to aesthetics, will, I hope, confirm me as an individual qualified to take on the challenge of a course that demands commitment.
