Test in progress!!!( Fold Formation Mountain)
Monday, February 8, 2010
These pieces are also studies for larger sculptures that will be included in my thesis exhibition!! Attempting to show earthen processes (tectonic action/ fault mountain formation) via dry clay layering. The larger piece will be contained in some type of wood structure with long plexiglass windows for viewing. Also, here are a few pics of our gallery space in the process of being cleaned and worked on!!!
This is a preliminary study for a larger installation that i mentioned earlier. Lots of decisions still to be made about the layout and structure of the piece, but i plan on re-doing this multiple times and trying various combinations. Biggest problem so far is deciding how to get the wire mesh tight enough sustain the weight and pressure? Any suggestions?
