Mixed Media works

These three works are a combined collage of different papers with the post box image drawn on. I then sewed the papers together rather randomly using different coloured threads and a ombination of machine sewing and hand stitching.

A collection of boxes covered with prepared paper

All done!! Hooray!!

more process photos of the 500 cranes sculpture

Almost there!!!

 I've decided that since 500 cranes wont reach the ground inside my mozzie net, I'm instead going to use the all up and see how far down I go and stagger the cranes so they're not all at the same height.

more process images for 500 cranes installation

Its taking a while but I think it will be worth it in the end :)

process photos of my sculpture

These are photos of a sculpture I am currently making at TAFE. There are going to be 500 cranes hanging on fishing line inside the mozzie net.

I will have some of fabric jewellery on sale at Reverse Garbage in Brisbane, at their Materialistic exhibition on Saturday September 10th 6pm-9pm.
Heaps of local artists have entered things that they have made using recycled and/or reused fabrics.
