Geoff led his second session today at TAG and the group continued to explore our theme using sculpture. A huge variety of work was produced and Roger took some excellent photos which will appear on here shortly. They worked in veneer, clay and willow with fabric, buttons, copper wire and beads, all making statements based upon the micrographs, hair strands, images of self and identity, texture and form in 3d. Geoff may also send in some words for the blog at some stage this week.
The group were very excited to hear/see some of their work on the RMS project blog! Roger is also going to write some words from the group for the blog. I have also encouraged them to go on line and to comment on the work as it develops. Now for a nice sit down and a cup of tea! ~Jacqui L Geoff is leading a session at TAG this afternoon about sculpture that relates to the project and to personal identity. ~Jacqui L
Just had an amazing delivery of willow withies in three beautiful colours from Julia Hayes who has an Apple Orchard at Durley. These three types of willow - Goat, Golden and Scarlet - will be used as part of the sculpture project being led by Geoff Poulton at Thornhill Art Group during May 2013. Very exciting to see such wonderful bright colours and forms - almost like extremely large strands of dyed hair. Many thanks to Julia who has donated these valuable resources to the RMS Project. ~Jacqui L
