I wanted to do more research into creating line/thread sculptural pieces, and develop my work in through looking at these artists different methods.

Because I'm using dark lines in my project, I've been researching into artists ways of using dark lines such as this embroidery peice. I like how some lines are so controlled, and some thread pieces are left drifting. So detailed and delicate.

Jannick Deslauriers

Artist Jannick Deslauriers emphasizes art’s most fragile elements, through a mass of translucent fabric. Her delicate fibre art spins out thread sculptures that send strong messages, covering the ghosts of cities, people and of war. (Above: Piano, 2010-11, crinoline, rigid mesh, organza and thread).

Random

Sometimes when I come across interesting images, I can never find out who is behind them and its very frustrating. If anyone knows please do tell!
But anyway, yes just came across these pictures and thought they were worth looking at.

Junk Portraits

Zac Freeman makes these large scale portraits with pieces of junk.  It’s interesting that these portraits only come to life when seen from a distance, but I love looking up close at all the random stuff he uses like dominos, little green army men, dolls, train tracks etc.  It must have taken him an extremely long time to match all the colours so effectively.  This reminds me of my previous post about the exhibition at the Barbican with all the possessions laid out and the saying ‘waste not, want not’.

Food for Design

I came across these images from a baking cookbook from IKEA showing all the recipes laid out in beautiful designs, I love this new interesting way to show cooking instructions!  Designed by Forsman and Bodenfors, they were inspired by the concepts of Japanese minimalism and fashion.  I love the simplicity and order in these and how the coloured backgrounds which they are presented on makes them stand out. They link in with my project and how I want to lay out my collection of found objects in a clear uniformed way.

Random

A few images, that I came across when looking through random blogs. Didnt have any names or anything but I found the visuals very interesting. Especially for my project.
