PROGRESS SO FAR TOILES

SO HERE IS A QUICK RECAP ON WHAT AM DOING....  THE CONCEPT IS CONFINEMENT AND AM TRYING TO PORTRAY THIS MOOD IN AN INNOVATIVE WAY THAT IS NOT EXPECTED... WELL THAT'S WHAT I WAS AIMING FOR. INITIALLY I LOOKING WAS IMAGES THAT REPRESENT THIS MOOD, THEN I STUMBLED ON A STATUE BY Umberto Boccioni  "Unique Forms of Continuity in Space"...  THIS IS A FUTURISTIC PIECE.. THE ARTIST WITHIN THAT PERIOD WHERE RESENTIFUL OF ALL THAT WAS TRADITIONAL AND WHERE MORE EXITED BY SPEED AND TECHNOLOGY... ON THIS IDEA I WAS ABLE TO RELATE TO THE STATUE THROUGH OBSERVATION, IN THAT THE STATUE IS MADE OF A MATERIAL THAT HEAVY N VERY STABLE WHERE AS THE WAY ITS CONSTRUCTED SHOWS MOVEMENT...  THIS TO ME EVOKES IDEAS OF FRUSTRATION  >>> WANTING TO MOVE BUT BEING UNABLE TO THUS BEING CONFINED. SO WITH THIS IN MIND I THOUGHT WHAT WAY CAN

I EXPRESS THIS IN A NEW WAY SOMETHING THAT PURPOSELY GOES AGAINST TRADITION... THIS WAS REVEALED IN FABRICATION... MY CHOICE WAS ORGANZA. WE KNOW ORGANZA TO BE DELICATE , FLUID, I TOOK THAT IDEA AND TWISTED IT BY APPLYING INTERFACING TO IT THUS MAKING IT RIGID>>> TO FURTHER EXPLORE THE IDEA OF STRUCTURE I THEN PLEATED AND PIN TACKED THE ORGANZA(OMG THE LONG THING EVER IS HAND PLEAT I SPEND MOST OF MY DAY PLEATING AND PIN TUCKING..
 MY NEW NAME IS MRS PLEATS LOLOL)..


THIS COMPLETELY CHANGED THE LOOK, AM NOT SURE WHETHER I WANT TO SEE THE ORGANZA COME THROUGH, WILL SEE AS I PROGRESS.  I ASWELL AS THIS I THOUGHT WHY NOT TRY EXPRESS THE EMOTIONAL ASPECT WHICH WILL BE ILLUSTRATED THROUGH DIGITAL PRINT AND MAYBE TIE DYING THE ORGANGA

OTHER ELEMENTS SUCH AS PLEATING I WILL BE LOOKING AT THE MAIN MAN HIMSELF MR ISSEY MIYAKE >>>MR PLEAT LOL  AND MANY OTHERS THAT WILL BE DISCUSSED FURTHER ON


ANYWAY I FEEL I HAVE WROTE TOO MUCH HERE ARE SOME PICS TO SHOW WHAT AM SAYING >>>>>

 Sculpture derived from Unique forms of continuity in space (Forme uniche della continuita nello spazio) (1913)
