Filming my samples dissolving..

I am really not a natural when it comes to filming, but as a group we have started collecting footage together, I just used this to show I have tried a little myself! I now know how to fast forward filming; I wanted to dissolve one of my own samples as we have been filming dissolvable fabric together.

 

Jean Paul Gaultier

We have been using a lot of projections and so i wanted to find out other artists who were doing something simiuliar. Jean Paul Gaultier used projections in one of his catwalk shows. He projected  faces onto plastic mannequins, it achieved a very strange, scary feel to the mannequins.

More Mapping!

After concentrating on my lino prints of maps, I started looking at dissolvable fabric, I made the map shape and after the fabric had been dissolved, I was left with lots of different shapes. I did quite a few and then started to place them ontop of each other. They resembled the texture and shapes that form ontop of brickwork.

Reverting back to the the idea of a hiddent gem, I stitched the mapworks into a shirt, on the inside so that it was all hidden on the outside.

 I altered the brightness in this picture to make it brighter. I like the orange brickwork but I do like the contrasts you find on the redbrick.

This is another page from my sketchbook, I printed my lino print of mapping ontop of the brickwork picture.I really want to emphasise the layered effect I have noticed on bricks. They are not flat and not all one colour.

Manchester Maps

Using the idea of hidden manchester, I started looking at aerial views of Manchester.I really liked the coincidental shapes shown on the maps. I decided to experiment with lino prints, carving the shapes of the maps.

This one is my favourite as I liked the effect of carrying on the map line....

This is one of the lino prints that I made; I made a few bit this on was A4,which was the biggest...

  This is a print that I tried on fabric...

This one I made the bricks out of the samples....

I am really not very good at photoshop but I am trying to get used to it!
