Within our first week of art lessons, we were given charcoal & white chalk to draw on the rolls of brown paper spread across our tables using the piles of postcards and objects given to us for inspiration. After filling the sheets with drawings, we then ripped off sections of the paper and used this as a starting point for our hanging scultpure. I used my holiday work as inspiration and looked at the idea of twisting and plaiting the brown paper using different materials like string, elastic and tissue result paper.

The end represented the struggle and pain of the figure in my holiday work photos, but I didn't feel very happy with the results. I decided to then instead take photos of sections of the sculpture so it didn't look literally like a card copy of the painting. I much prefered these images and found it easy to then move forward with the project.
