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.

materilas. cotton rope, wood, silicon rubber, foam fabric.

she incoperates the use of plaster in this piece. which relates to mine ,but what faninates me most is the may she uses a heavy substance (plaster and is able to use a weight to suspend the sculpture with a weight. this also links with my theme wight and i want to try and incopate this into my work (being able to use a weight and suspend a heavy object rather than light.

i feel this prosses of filming and refelcting back to myself has really helped me get it all out of my head and through a diffrent use of media. ive tryed all three in this project and i feel each one has helped me in diffrent ways. and next year i will do the same.

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)
