Our Construction.

The second part of the days workshop involved us splitting into small groups each group was given 3 items at random and asked to create something by joining them in different ways. Personally I didn't like this part of the workshop as I found the final piece wasn't as good as I had hoped. Still the workshop helped me in looking at objects in a different way and trying to think of inventive ways of putting a range of them together.

Struggling to figure out how we could get the structure to stand without being through the hole in the chair.

So we marked the size of the pipe on the floor in the studio and then drilled 3 big screws into the floor and then just fit the pipe over the top of them.

We found the metal ring wouldn't balance on the top of the pipe on its own so using a saw we made a groove for the wire to sit in.

Next we were trying to decide how to add the deflated globe football. In the end we decided to cut it in half and weaving the pieces through the metal.

 

I think the workshop was hard because of the three items we were given. We felt limited especially with the deflated football but I still found the workshop helpful.
