Artist Research

I have been looking into some more artists for some more inspiration and I have found this artist who uses shadows. Space and function are crucial in her approach to the work. Each piece is a response to a particular space and must fulfil a specific purpose – for example acoustic insulation and the texturing of space. Much of the work is assembled from modular elements, giving maximum flexibility.

The idea of flexibility then gave me some new ideas. I realised that I may need to use yarns which allow me to create movement with samples. I have thought about using some wire, as i can then use this to shape my samples when they are off of the loom. After looking at Wiherheimo's work, it has also encouraged me to think about shadowing and the effects of light on objects.
