Hi


I took some images of my favourite pieces of work in the exhibition,
and thought I share them with you!

There were so many pieces that I loved, but these are just a few of the
variety of works from Fashion & Textiles, Fine Art, 3D Product Design etc.

Here is my piece and how it looked at the exhibition

 




Here are other pieces of work from the different subject areas...

  

A Visual Communication ( Graphics ) piece ...

 

These work is based on different types of 2D maps that were turned 3D!






An Architecture piece- building.



Visual Communication (Graphics) piece

A Fine Art piece the inside is a small cabin that has images words
etc on the walls very interesting piece...






A Fashion & Textile piece, the garments are designed for a story that
the person made and so decided to create the garments. At the bottom
by the dresses is a photo frame which tells the viewer what the story
is about...   





Another Architecture piece that was based on sustainable architecture...




3D- product design piece. A poem was used to create these 4 rings that
hang off the wall.
The poem is written above it. To read the poem just click on the image
so it is larger.

Here is another Architecture piece ...

Well here you have it! These are some of my favourite pieces from
the exhibition. I hope you like the pieces of work!!

Evaluating & Making- part 4

continued from Part 3 ....

Well once I was back in College I started to try putting the pieces together
and seeing if the rods would fit. There was a slight problem of the rods not
fitting at all because the base moved sloghtly while hammering in the nails.
So I had to use the rounded file and remove the wood so that the clear rods
could atleast fit into the holes that I drilled.

These were the wood pieces I cut and than painted white. It was hard not to get
any dust onto them while they were drying, even thought the spray paint would dry quickly.

I had a problem with the tower because the front was a sharp point and the metal
would not bend all around the corner and give me that sharp edge. So I had to cut two
smaller metal strip for both the towers and join them together by making a cover that
joins the two pieces together.

I bent the metal cover on the metal bender than had to use a wood piece that was cut at
an angle to get the sharp corner. I used the soft hammer so that the polished would
not get any marks on.



I than scratched the metals edge where the glue would go on so as it needs a rough
surface for it to have a strong hold. I used Araldite to join the pieces together and than
palced a thing piece of wood inside the joint so it would join at the angle straight and
not anywhere else.

I than started to drill in the brackets into the base and attach the wood pieces I
sprayed white before. It was difficult because the space avaible between the base and
the bracket was very little. This meant that the screw would be in there bent or would
not drill in at all.

Without putting on the wood pieces...

 


I than put all the pieces together so I could sort the perspex roof out by cutting
a piece of paper and laying it out on the wood pieces I screwed on to see how much
of perspex I needed to cut. I than went onto cutting the perspex and bending it on
the line bender. I also cut the metal pieces that needed to go onto the front sides, which
I bent slightly from the front and than glued on with Araldite jsut liek I did with
the perspex


I cut out the mesh on the band saw than screwed that on from the back and front of
the base of the model. I made sure the wood pieces I cut from before for the
tower roof tops were holding the clear rods in place too.

The final Outcome



Overall I think it looks great even though it did cause me a lot of trouble but
still it was worth it!
