Untitled, 18/7/2012, found wooden crate, clay, gloss medium, orange plastic rope, rubber band, nails, found wood, installed in studio space.

These works are what I have been making leading up to our formative assessment. The wire and blue rope work was causing problems  with what I should do with the ends of the rope... I tried dangling it down the centre of the tube so it tangled with the threaded rope on the inside but that made it look to busy and messy, I tried attaching it to a nail in the wall and then the other installations in my studio but didn't like that either. And I tried suspending it as an object just off the floor. I ended up just letting them hang down the side on the  outside.

The bottom picture using the orange rope, I made thinking about having objects and materials rely in one another to hold the installation together. I ended up using a rubber band as the point of anchorage. I enjoyed this because it doesn't seem stable and the rubber band seems to be holding and supporting more then it should be able to.
