Another Knife Test
Even though the rest of the brief said that you can't do any head pieces i still really love the form of my paper knife sculpture that robin so kindly modeled for me so im gonna go ahead and try to make it anyway without thinking that it's going to be a head piece and just see what the form makes it.
The rest of the brief
Just got the rest of the brief that has the list of options of what we can aim towards making as a final piece and from looking at it and looking at the work i have already done i think i am going to go with my earlier decision of the body adornment one, but on the rest of the brief here it says that you can't make anything boring so no head pieces, bracelets or necklaces nothing that has been done a thousand times before. Maybe a little rethink of ideas.

My Paper Sculpture Stuff
Two of my finished photocopied knife tests, i don't think that the test on the right worked very well as it doesn't look very difficult to make and the form of it isn't very good.
The test on the left i think is my more successful one of the two and i hope to develop that one further in my ideas.
Because i decided that i was going to do some kind of body adornment i thought maybe a possible headdress??
This is robin holding it against her head so i could see what it would look like.
Photocopied Paper Knives
With this one i tried to incorporate a Richard Sweeney style to my form of the Photocopied Knife Sculpture with the sphere shape of it.
With this one i started with a fan of Photocopied knives and i didn't really know what to do with them so i left it for a while and then my inspiration came when i looked around the studio and i see the discarded curls of the paper from the back of double sided tape (pictured below) so i decided that with my photocopied paper knives i was gonna curl and twist them back up into the middle of the fan of knives I quite like the form that it had created in the end.
Andy Warhol's Knives Piece Dress
So i found this dress and i just knew this is the way i want to take it i really want to do body adornment now and create a piece thats going to adorn a body somehow.
Knives
I was looking through my Pop art book again today and i came across Andy Warhol's Knives piece i really like this piece because of the repeated knives i like the idea of lots of things repeating over and over not sure how to use this in my work though?
