Continuing from my photographic experiments I wanted to see how another material would look when projected onto my sculpture; cling film. Whilst making some experimental responses to my sculpture I had placed cling film onto paper which I had covered in drawing ink, and as the ink dried it made shapes negative to where the cling film had been sitting. What I found more interesting however, were the shapes left behind on the cling film itself. Geometric panels of ink have been transferred onto the cling film, and so I tried projecting these panels onto the sculpture. I found that this projection was far more successful than previous attempt with line drawings. Not only do the panels translate well onto the sculpture, but the panels and texture of the cling film also project onto the wall behind, creating a series of overlapping layers.
I also applied this projection to another experiment that I made. Using photocopies of the blind drawings I had made, I wanted to see how these lines could be translated into 3D. Following the same technique as when making the original cardboard structure, I used the lines already present on the paper to guide me in where to fold, bend and secure the paper into 3D forms. The result of this shows how lines on a flat surface can be manipulated and transformed; linking back to our original starting point of Richard Serra’s verb list.
