FINAL PIECE

Following the experiemation that I conducted, I put together my final piece. My method was using, specified wood glue, acrylic paint (white and flourescent red), allumium tape, thread (white and metallic silver) and white 2.5" inch width elastic. 

I am very happy with the outcome as I feel it successfully portrays my childhood memory of being messy and creative on building sites. As a test for evaluation purposes, I asked a few peers to comment on what they thought the piece resembled. 

Phoebe: "I see it as the remains of a skip after a building job at an artists studio."

Niove: "I love how the inspiration from Frank Stella's piece 'Had Gayda:Back Cover' has transformed and merged with the childhood memory concept" 

I am very happy with these comments because that's exactly what I was aiming for. To achieve my aim for this project is very pleasing.

To possibly improve this piece, I would love to channel it into something more commercially viable. This would show my understanding of working in industry. It would possibly be better in terms of employability as well. It would show a fashion house that I can think conceptually, yet still channel the customers vision of the brand into sellable pieces. 

The piece could still possibly be used as a show piece of for advertisement purposes to really set a brand apart from others, remain eye catching and intriguing.

SAMPLE COLLAGING

With the samples that I made I thought it would be a good idea to see what the would be like if the were life size. Considering that I wanted to make a large sulpture accessory, this was a very successful process to carry out. 

One of the disappointing factors about this activity was the fact that I wouldnt realistically be able to make life size versions of this sample. Previously I have thought of using wood as the main medium for the accessory, however after this activity, it has proved that the majority of the piece wil have to be made of wood to give it the structure and stability of the illustrations that I have created. 

Now that I have made this realisation, I can plan to make the final accessory within a suitable time frame to allow materials to form bonds *ie: to let the wood glue dry properly to make a good quality accessory that will with stand wear as it would have to in industry. 

Obviously an accessory of this conceptual nature wouldn't be commercially viable for sale. So now I have made the aim of showcasing it as if it were a show piece to compliment a collection.
