John Wynne

John Wynne is a sound artist, his work ranges from huge installations to delicate sculptural works and im some pieces he creates interesting reflections of order and chaos.

I was drawn to the simple block forms of the speakers within a blank,masked space.

Eva Hesse

I have been very much inspired by the work of Eva Hesse, her drawings and structured pieces express ideas of ordered arrangements in a regimented style. I have been applying a similar idea to my own work, creating somekind of control and order to how I have structured my samples. For myfinal exhibition piece I plan to make a series of hanging forms as part of a instalation piece and I think Eva Hesse has so many amazing examples of this. In particular I have been looking at how she arranges her pieces within the sapce in order to make as big an impact as possible, she seems to keep the arrangment very structured and tidy, this is what i would like my work to portary also as our group have discussed the ideas of a space that is quite clinical and clean looking, in keeping with our collaboration of textiles and science.

Victoria May

From seeing this image in the book By Hand her aim was to illustrate the idea of heaviness as a comfort.
This really reminded me of the piece I made entrpping the iron filings into the fabric, I di like the weight of the fabric caused by the metal, and this is what she has created here.

Damien Hirst

Damien Hirst, "In and Out of Love (White Paintings and Live Butterflies)", installation view, 1991

Still thinking about this idea of conrolling the reaction and entrapping it somehow. This piece by Damien Hirst keeping the butterflys in a closed-off environment and controlling what they do in just one space. Its making me think how I can use space and take control of the reaction within my piece, entrapping the reaction.

Ahmed Mater

'Ahmed Mater gives a twist to a magnet and sets in motion tens of thousands of particles of iron, a multitude of tiny satellites that forms a single swirling nimbus.'

Just really love the simplicity of the materials and the shapes the filings create from movement.
