found a artist from pintrest. its hard to find artist from pintest due to people saving them on there accounts, but i found although who really inspired me.
Maria Batuszova
she creates ceramic pieces using plaster and making the sculptures look like balloons with string around them. i like the visual effect of the indents in the plaster made by the string. i feel she will inspire my work greatly and i want to use a simular effect to how maria Batuszova creates in her work.
another artist who inspired me, also on pintrest was...
Michelle Carla Handle
how also creates sculptures but in a more unique way. using fabrics. like cottons and rope to make adaptations of sculpture. i like the materials she uses and i want to uncoperate this into my work. by just usingn the raw fabrics than using plaster as well. i feel i need to investigate more into using diffrent materilas than just sticking with the same all the time. as then my work will develop.

plaster. I hated plaster infact I actually dissed people who worked with plaster. oops. now I love to work with it, the reason why was because I through that plaster is a slightly strong material and the fact that I wanted to use it with a flowing, unstructed thing (material)
i didn't want to start another page as this one was pointless but I'm just about to finish my work and then i thought of another idea. infect a messy idea which really didn't have any outcome in my head at the time. what have i do. well i used old bed sheet and hung it up. then smeated plaster on it.
after that the exhibition was going up so we had to clear up. which meant moving my work.
jon said just to rest it on the floor. but then after thinking it would be a hanging piece i then discoved i liked it on the floor. but it didn't keep its structure. which made me think it would never work.
jon said if you really like this piece on the floor try and hange it up add more layers of plaster to make it stronger and then trey again.
i tried again and it didn't work again due to the layer of plater underneath not bonding with the new layers. i really wanted this to work so i poured plaster on it, on the floor and propped it. this worked and it still in process and i hope it stays up for the exhibition. as i piece of fabric which i just played around with at the end turned out to be my favourite.
now it is on a black piece of card in the middle of 3d and the subbord of the strength on the sides of the plaster fabric is just keeping it up.
jon said you have to leave it to balance and weight out so it cn vide its level on its own.
ive never left a piece of art work to create and form on its own which even though it may not work the intention behind the artwork creaing and forming its self everyday has inspired my workings for next year.
finally this work has not been finished in my head to i want to make this work next year and find if it will create the same thing or it will hold together.
jon finally said that you ddnt intent to make it stand on its own to be hung therefore if you was to did it and improve it you would intend in the first place to be on the floor therefore it will already be made for that.
and that's what I'm going to do.
idea for next time
leave base of fabric on the flor
hang each corner of the fabric slightly off the floor to keep the shape i want but also for structure.
make sure plaster bonds which olready dried plaster.
create it place i want it to be (so it wont need to be moved)
Liverpool. has been the most inspiring place for me through my entire 2 years at college on a trip. i found two artist which inspired me the most. i have already mentioned this in my sketch book but i wanted to rant it out on my blog. so i could express whats in my head and get it out.
i feel the blog is the best for me when I'm to took in my head and need to get it out so i can understand whats happening myself. i feel there work has greatly inspired me and i need to use this and not forgot it, as i feel i have through my work the past couple of days.
i have lost my meaning on why i am doing my work and i need to releft in order for my work to have its meaning back.
I'm taking a step back form my work inorder or it to sure its purpose as i wanted it to.
i mostly feel these 2 artist has help (candiaris and lucus) as they use structure to present clothing. in a different form. i this open my eyes on the possibility on using fashion and art together to show the two and also bounce off of eat other. this concept has been going through my work but i need to reflect it more, and think before doing.
I keep reflecting as I was boneidle and didn't write on my blog while actually creating my peices shit.! but I feel that reflecting now with only one week left will actually be better, as now I am under pressure, but don't actually feel it. I feel this week is going to be the best week of my hole fmp. as this blog has cleared my head and now I know what I want to do. I am even more inspired than ever and I want to use this right now to create pieces which I enjoyed. I have to admit that I have enjoyed my fmp more than other briefs. I just need to look at thew work I have created. like actually look and so I can sort my shit out.
I feel I am being negative to myself right now and I should because I di actually like my work I just keep making the same stuff and staying in my comfort zone. I need to escape from my own head.
when filming yesterday I could remembered an artists name and she didn't actually influence that much but her idea behind the piece resembled my work through the use of hyperventlying when having a panic attack and she showed that well through her work she inspired be in the fact that she used simple materials like glass and breath to show her work. which now reflecting back I feel I need to make my work easier by using simple materials but still have my theme showing. I basically just need to keep[ reflecting which I haven't and its annoying me because now I know I would of made less work with more of a meaning to lile shitty pieces that I don't actually know why I did them. infect i did I just did them because I didn't know what else to do. and I want to kick myself right now. the only thing I do know right now is that I have never been so fcused and inspired by my work than in my fmp. I like the meaning and I relate a lot to this personal theme which I have pickled. I really picked the theme to show other people what's its like having anxiety and how personal it is to me and kind of scary to put it across. I also like how it isn't that easy to see the theme I have picked therefore I only really know what its about until I tell people.
just had a discussion with jon and I am writing to remember it. he said I need these two days to reflet on my work and I don't think it is progressing. so I am making the same shit./ this isnt good and I need to remember the reason why I am making the work.
I also need to realise that not all my materials may not be handed to me e.g plaster
fabrics
and other resources
this means that I have to9 adjust to the materials I have and possibly find another alternative.
jon had this problem with plaster as he didn't think he could use it again for carton circumstances. and he has to make sacrifices for his work.
I am trying to think now how I can develop mu work and make them in a different way, with different materials.
I feel that the one thing I wouldn't live with out would be fabric. as I would die without this in my work.
at the moment plaster has been a big part in my work and I feel that for my fmp I would be able to work without it.
I didn't have to make one sacrifice in the project. mo0ney!!!!!!! I havent being able to afford a lot of plaster or certon fabrics which worked well in my artwork. therefore I have been using a lot of old fabrics from charity shops as well as clothing.
I need to be resourceful and think about what im making
ella! cant stress this enough acutally think about the theme you are going with
I also need to try and reuse artwork which I don't like.
I need to more creative and think that I have lost this slightly through my fmp.
