In Situ photo.

This was just my favourite photo of the bunch thought id chuck it in.

This is how i would intend my sculpture to be seen. hanging from the ceiling like a group of stalactites. SMART!

Sculpture Photos

This is just a selection of some of the photos i took of my sculpture. x

Created a Monster

I took all of the triangles into the studio to build so that they could be photographed on the same day in the hope that any overnight collapses wouldn't reoccur. SMART!

The inner workings of the sculpture.

Because im so smart i decided to build an even bigger and better version of the sculpture i had initially built, this was not a good idea. Lead to stressful structural bull crap build that kept falling apart... sucks.

Eventually got something together, quick get it freakin' photographed.

Bad day at the office

I am currently freaking out. RAGE!

This is how my sculpture looked the previous night. I took a little celebratory photo in commemoration of its completion. : )

This is how my sculpture looked the morning after. The stick on the masking tape had degraded causing it to collapse. GOOOOD (sarcasm) 

Offcuts and Dangly things

My final sculpture uses a series of paper triangles attached together to create a larger forms, this is just my playing with offcuts to see if I could create any interesting designs.

These offcuts created a nice kind of dangly thing the name off which escapes me right now.

DANGLY THING!

Natural Forms as an Influence - Stalagmites and Stalactites

I was told that my idea for my final sculpture was reminiscent of stalagmites and stalactites so i decided to take a look at them.

These rockformations take shape over thousands of years of water droplets leaving tiny mineral deposits which eventually build up into these impressive monoliths.

Andy Goldsworthy

Andy Goldsworthy is probably the master when it comes to using nature as an art form. Whilst paper will be my medium I have used natural forms as my primary research and would therefore be a fool not to note Goldsworthy's work. It goes without saying that his work is inspiring and the influence of nature is blates obvious, I can only try to emulate this in my work.
