For the second week of this project we had to choose our favorite mood board and create a sculpture based on our research. I choose to work with silence as this was the board I enjoyed working on the most. As i was researching i found my self drawn to the sinister side of silence. That there is something really unnatural about it. I wanted to convey the idea of forced silence, of covering up the noise. For the swatch for this mood board i crumpled up tin foil and hi-lighted the texture created with a black marker. I used this to represent the nose or chaos, I then covered this with a light tracing paper so that you could still see the tin foil underneath. I wanted to develop this idea of covering up a very intricate and random pattern for my sculpture. I had worked a lot with wire for my first semester project so decided to twist and bend wire into a sphere and then use a very light chiffon to cover it. This turned out to be a very time consuming and delicate process but I was really happy with the finished sculpture.
