the night before the day of the presentation!

 All week i have been going around collecting cardboard boxes and pager shavings from different shops around limerick. i also took alot of pictures this week of different surfaces,shapes,forms,colours and movements that i have seen. they are all still in the area of surfaces.
so after annoying all the shopkeepers of limerick i began to work with my new materials. i wanted to use the pictures that i took and make them into the surface that they were orginally but with a little twist. i took there form but gave them all a different surface. eg something that was flat i made rise and flatened the other surface that was around eg a manhole cover...you know the little bolts they have? well i cut out little carboard models of them and then with paint i made the flat surface behind the bolts rise up to meet it! the paint it layered on very thick and looks bumpy this is the effect i was going for...instead of it being cool and steel like i took it to a different place with the paint...i hope!
till next time!
