EXPLORE CREATIVITY - 4/10/11

Paper Folding - large scale

So todays aim was to develop the rule based art work we had created the previous week but this time on a much larger scale, after fighting with sheets of A0 paper into class we again had to choose a 'net' to scale up onto them.

This process was to show how garment shapes and pattern ideas can be formed just by using a much larger scale.


After fixing our shape together we started photgraphing it on different parts of the form, whether to create ideas for an innovative sleeve, collar, shoulder or dress.





The organic curves and twists of my mannequin shapes reminded me of flower petals


Although I think I produced some quite unusual shapes I feel that the overall shape wasn't big enough to achieve anything more than small details of a new garment, with this in mind I drew out a totally new shape to try to gain a better outcome.

FROM 2D:

TO 3D:





I feel this shape works so much more because of the linear feel to it, having blocks of shape help create more of a full garment rather than a garment detail.
