- Likes the tag ideas throughout my book explain what I am doing and showing development.
- (Lindsey) Why have I chosen to use salt dough for the mask?
I have chosen salt dough as its easy to make and use. I can also colour it and when I am done bake it in the oven. Where as if I where to use clay I would have no way of cooking it as the college no longer has a kiln.
- Experimentation.
- Fashion from found objects
During my research I found some artists who’ve use found objects to create clothing. This gave me inspiration to use found objects in my work to represent the homeless as they are on the floor around the rubbish and find things to eat sleep and sell.
- (Lindsey) Form dress out of pages from brochures or books. Maybe books linking to Chatham. Could find a book about the history of Chatham for the dress.
I experimented with making the skirt of my dress by using pages from a paint brochure. Lindsey the client gave me the idea to maybe use books or newspapers relating to Chatham instead. I could find a book on the history, about the trams or fort etc.
- (Claire) top out of bottle tops/beer can tops
I found an artist who made a dress out of bottle tops. My tutor liked this idea and it gave me inspiration to think about something similar. We said about using bottle tops or maybe to decorate it. And as many bottle tops and can tops are on the floor it links quite well.
- Aim project at school children 13-18 year olds.
- Highlight the bad things in Chatham.
- (Claire) Find templates for design and develop.
- What would the images behind my dress be of and why would I use them?
I thought about using images behind my dress as it would show some skanky places in Chatham people ignore or don’t know of. It would show where the people I am focusing on hang. The picture would be photos I have personally taken.
- Questionnaire on work.
