Yesterday i decided to go into uni to be creative and just have a day to switch off from the writing side. To be honest i have found writing this week a bit overwhelming so i just removed myself from it for just one day!
I managed to get onto the laser cutter (as uni was very quiet) and i cut out some simple furniture shapes :)
my papers all had different textures on them to really add some depth to my designs!
This is a pretty pattern my friend created with my cut outs :) i think its ace!!
just a snap shot of the laser cutter at uni - this is birtwell!!
Anyhow, i am doing my project based upon the 1950s surface pattern design so i have created some atomic looking motifs from the negative spaces of the cut out shapes!
one word which could by used to describe the meaning of what i am creating is "Ontology" - the meaning of existance!!
so here is what i created....
these are my, somewhat, contemporary motifs which are inspired by the atomic era. However the interesting shapes are created from the negative spaces (left overs) from my cuttings which i have placed down onto paper. the idea is that you get a sence that objects exsisted but is no longer there! (abstracted) - i gotta say myself; its mind boggling!!!
