Developments from Primary Observations

 Here you can see a collection of my developmental pieces inspired by my original observations and imagery from the Hepworth and YSP visit, experimenting with a multitude of materials and techniques looking into how I can explore the use of sustainable materials in creating 3-d and a few 2-D  developments, helping me to think about the potential direction I would like to go down whether that be a body adornment piece, a 3D Sculpture piece or a range of  3 samples.
Here you can see a piece inspired by a ink piece in the Hepworth, I have sewn into this photo-gram using a sewing machine to draw out from my original observation similar to Maurizos style. I think this piece works well due to the variation in tones and the fact that it is finished with just using black an white adds a nice illusion to the back ground picture and foreground stitch.
 However I don't think it is a piece i would like to develop due to its lack of room to develop.
I particularly like this 3D piece I have developed from an image taken at the Barbra Hepworth, using a list of sustainable material, metal book binders, left over velvet fabric from another project and also wire, I love the way this piece is free standing and the colour scheme works well having a very laid back calm feeling which matches the almost abstract imitation of the original piece. If I were to further develop this piece I could look into scale, colour and the incorporation of adding other techniques such as stitching, trying to personalise the piece more and link it to artist researches ect.

Here you can see a development piece inspired by Shirley Nette Willams work that capture a sculpture from the Hepworth gallery using a number of recyclesmaterials I found around the house and in the bin. If I were to further develop this piece I would look into perfecting my sewing technique and developing a number of observations in this style.

Here you can  see a material print on to velvet however this technique is not sustainable I started to work into it in a similar style as Maurizo using sewing techniques and wire. Unfortunatley I dont think this piece works well for my direction.  

here you can see a see a mixed media piece using hessian,wire,string and clothing, This piece was inspired by Shirley nette Williams work however emulated in a 3d form, this piece was a dvelopment of the charcoal and bread piece I observed from the Hepworth, I like the mixture of metal and fabric I think it has a strong look and could be developed in multiple ways. 

here you can see an abstract mixed media piece using wire, string, fabrics and photograph to produce a development in the style of  Maurizos work developing into the images and also Shirley Nette Williams work using a multitude of media, I think this piece works and if I were to develop it further I could start looking into scale and the materials I use and what relevance they have to social issues.


Here you can see a development piece that I think is very strong having been inspired by one of my original observations, it has now been adapted into a 3d piece lined figure, If i were to develop this piece further I would look into making this piece more relevant to my brief, looking into how this piece can be made to be made from sustainable product and also linking it back into my artist research whether that means having a sub vision also.
