On Tuesday i visited the barbican to see the Ron Arad ‘Restless’ exhibition, It was a great opportunity for research and inspiration. I loved all the sculptural forms, the colours and the shapes. One piece in particular gave me a lot of inspiration 'The quick fox and the lazy dog' (pictured below). It was a highly polished curved and then bent shape place around and old rusted chair frame to which the seat was a typewriter. It had moss growing within and through its keys, there were parts that were missing or had been decayed.
I started to wonder if this was something I could adapt or achieve but create it using a series of photographs?
I took lots of pictures of the different pieces both as a whole and some of the textures, patterns and shadows created by several of the pieces they gave be ideas to create images from which I could perhaps create some prints.....
