To roll, to join and to crumple

Group Project creating a model with 3 words in mind

To roll, to join and to crumple

 We used 4 sheets of paper joined by masking tap and rolled into a funnel for the top part, we used 2 pieces of paper rolled into a funnel for the bottom part, leveled off the bottom and cut a hole in the tip, joined the two pieces to create a torch or funnel shape, we used crumpled paper to steady the base and toothpicks to join the seams whilst taking away the masking tape underneath, the main structure was held by toothpicks.

 We did fill the bottom funnel with crumpled paper to start with to give some extra support, yet it mishaped the bottom funnel and some toothpicks came apart from the paper seam, instead we decided to weigh the top funnel down more by throwing the crumbled paper into it.

 The left over crumpled newspaper was left aside and around the structure to give it more dram, it reminded me of fallen petals.

This is a continuous line drawing of the structure. 15 min exercise. Our tutor asked us to do a series of drawings, initially, not taking the pencil off the paper, then not looking down at our drawing only to look at the object whilst not lifting our pencil off, all for timed sessions, maybe 2 mins sometimes, my final piece is displayed above, where i had to look very occasionally at my drawing and to still make a continuous line, filling the space around the object, this drawing is showing in detail the window behind rather well as it silhouettes the object.
