'Stretched Latex 1'


'Stretched Latex 1'

An experimental piece challenging the purpose of latex. The words are from a found book and are 'stuck' to the latex and so when stretched create interesting forms within the words. I was interested in stretching the latex as because it resembles skin, I was intrigued by what the reactions the stretching would have. The piece is stretched on a painted 6"x4" wooden frame.

'Dissecting String and Paper 1'


'Dissecting String and Paper 1'

This piece consists of found words, string and thread and is held in a 6"x4" wooden frame. This piece is about understanding the movements and investigating their individual qualities.

The book as a sculpture.


Second Year Fine Art.

'National Decimal Reckoner'

This piece is about the exploration of everyday objects being transformed into sculptural fine art pieces. The columns of numbers represent the constant of money in our everyday lives, following us around everyday, even coming to us within our art.


Throughout this term's project I am looking to start the process of change within objects I find that have been discarded and are seen as redundant. I aim to deconstruct and construct around them, investigating their qualities and ideas.
