Evaluation

I have really tried to push myself more with this project, experimenting more with colour and depths of tone. One of the main issues I faced with this project was tackling the idea of enlarging the scale of my samples, I now feel much more comfortable working on a larger scale. Also working alongside Annie Harrison gave me much inspiration for one of my larger samples, as she works a lot of her structures using sheets and pillow cases I decided to do a bed sheet piece, experimenting with tones of blues and thinking more about the idea of the fabric being weighed down by small components whether this be stitch or the broken spectacles pieces.
I did have some issues with working on such a large scale, and at first, it was quite overwhelming, although it was my intention that I was determined to increase sample sizes. The end result didn't quite turn out how I would have liked, I would have liked the bottom part of the fabric to have been darker in order to really portray the idea of depth and heaviness in the fabric. However, I have learned a lot from experimenting with this piece in particular with colour, scale and placement.
If I were to have done this project differently I perhaps wouldn't have used to bed sheet, I would have preferred to have used a more delicate fabric like a silk organza in order to really reflect the delicate subject matter of the project.
