Stage 2 Exercise 4

For this exercise, we were asked to make a grid using rigid materials.  Still in the middle of relocating from Japan to UK, I had to use whatever I could find!  I again decided to use use plastic construction toys to form my rigid grid, binding them with string and then wrapping all the pieces in string.  I then wrapped some of the spaces with different coloured yarns.

I didn’t really enjoy working with the plastic, so as soon as I had a chance I took myself of to the beach and collected various bits of driftwood and old bits of rope and string that had been wasted up on the shore.  When I got home I had a very enjoyable time binding the driftwood into a frame and weaving through it pies of string and rope.
