Evaluation

Evaluation After a lot of experimentation, I had realised that the delicate sheer fabric is something I could not develop if I wanted a merge of both my first part of the project and the royal armouries. I had started laser cutting and engraving on wood, which was very interesting, but I was more interested in what I had discovered myself. I found some very interesting ways to manipulate those sheer fabrics to be able to work with them and get stiffer sections through mixed media. Such as, liquitex matte gel, impasto transfer gel and the metallic powder paint. All of these materials allowed me to work creatively in a very new way from what I have been doing previously in my practice. fig 1 fig 2 I had started struggling figuring out the colours. The impasto transfer prints have a stiffer handle and so they leave permanent holes of the needle. I wanted to emphasise on the pattern so I went for darker colours but they looked too strong on this delicate colour. fig 1
