3D Sculpture

For my 3D piece I was asked to use any materials to create a sculpture in reference to my mood board. As I was looking closely at physical connections such as hands interlocking and lips touching as shown in the picture above, I represented this with 4 jigsaw pieces. I wanted the pieces to be soft and flexible so I cut the shapes from wadding and covered each with fabric like cushion covers. I would have liked to move away from material while I had the chance but by doing this I can now experiment with using the actual pieces themselves on the body.


I then took aspects from my mood board to link in the different representations of connection.

Piece one: White leatherette with black top stitching in a 'join the dots' graphic pattern
Piece two: White leatherette and plaited rope to represent entwining and connecting
Piece three and four: I kept these plain so that the emphasis is on the connection of the protruding shapes themselves and not the pattern.
