WEEK 5 11/10/11 Glue and cloth acticity

The task given was to create the structure from chair and any object of interest to make unusual shape. Working in a group we arranged a structure from two chairs creating an interesting shape that we could work around. We began by covering the object in cling film so it consolidated the structure. Following this, we encased the structure in thights covering the whole structure. The next stage was to soak the structure in PVA glue ensuring every area was covered.

Next week we continued with exercise when the structure was stiff. We created the structure that coud be placed onto the mannequi in a unconventional way. When we were creating the structure we tried not to think about the end result as a piece to fit around the body. that is how we got interesting shape we could experiment with. We began positioning the intriguing garment around the mannequin, bouncing ideas of each other.
