We use the completed puppets to develop story telling skills and performances that cover whole school themes e.g. Anti-bullying and School Code of Conduct. We also use them to muck about and simply entertain!

The idea of using stains as a theme for the surfaces project came accidentally when I lifted up my cup to see a ring stain left on a piece of cloth. I started to create and develop stains investigating how they reacted with different materials and surfaces e.g. paper, large wooded areas and fabric.

Abbey stain

To extend the stains experiments further I introduced photographic chemicals and the Photogram/Raygram process inspired by Man Ray introducing a series of drips and exploring the positive and negative space.

Abbey Rayograph1

I was very pleased with how the ring stains on the photogram turned out and decided to experiment with these pictures using ICT, scanning them onto photoshop and manipulating the colours.

Abbey Paint

From there I moved into 3D and relief casting as I wanted to explore the outcome of lifting the stains looking at the height and depth while using the same colour scheme from my ICT experiments.

Stains 3D Plaster Relief

Recently I have been experimenting with ‘accidental’ stains e.g where a cup of tea was thrown at a white dress, whilst maintaining the colour scheme from previous works.  I’ve  stitched around the stains to enhance them which is influenced by Nava Lubelski who stitches around stains on table cloths, canvas, paper and sheets to expose the beautiful, colourful abstract movement of the stain.

OConnor http://departmentart.co.uk/?p=529 Soft sculptures are made by using fabric to construct 3-dimensional objects. Claes Oldenburg was one of the first artists to use fabric as a sculptural material in the 1960′s. Margarita Cabrera is a contemporary artist who works with soft sculpture taking everyday objects and recreating them using fabric.
