Chapter 11 – Growth and Disintegration – Resolved Sample

 

First thoughts – paper experiments

11a - Paper squares scrunched, punched, torn, ripped, folded and/or cut

   11b - These four images demonstrate a technique I was shown at Summer School. I covered card squares with magazine pages, then machine stitched randomly or in a pattern. I finally wetted the cards and rubbed sections off to give the impression of disintegration.

11c - The eight images show the gradual disintegration of my original shape. A different shape emerges with each cut.                                 ____________________________________________________________

11d - The four identical  star shapes show different ways of making the stars appear to disintegrate by punching, tearing and/scraping holes.

Third thoughts – fabric shapes

11j

11h – 11i - 11j - Three series of fabric star showing disappearance/disintegration using machine stitching. I think the zig-zag (11i) was the most effective.
