Studio Practice 2- Experimentation

Continuing on from my initial weaving experiments, i started to think about filling in the gaps i had left and exploring some writing work. i like the combination of materials and there are also lots of other ways i could explore this. i think that i can start looking at wool to draw into the weave and practice blocking colours in other ways.

-Feeling like my responses are limited, i decided that i could use drawing as a way to explore more imagery. im really enjoying the look of the teeth and the ties to growth/loss/nourishment. i think i might bring them back into sculpture and explore what kind of materials will be interesting- felt, paper, clay, wire? i also like contrast of soft/hard with the fabric underneath- could relate to the idea of tough love and link softness to comfort.
-The blind drawings of milk bottles- it ties into the idea of ‘mothers milk’ which is something i want to go into more. Mothers milk is a source of nutrients but when i relate it to my experience or the idea of receiving care i can imagine it being spoiled/toxic. i think this could also link back to teeth/bones and how their growth requires calcium.
– i am thinking lots about new leaves- i think this imagery supplies the idea of hope or something new but i dont think it looks that interesting.
