Photo Update from my residency in Johannesburg...

Hello,
This is a photo update of my work/ project so far at the bag factory residency.
It's been a great experience experimenting with new materials in this case wire wool and getting myself to draw again.


This must have been from my first few weeks here


This is actually just about 2 weeks ago after several experiments with wire wool as you can see on the table





Creating the structure for the main sculpture from pipes and Styrofoam 




Attaching the wire wool









                              
                         
 So far so good...

Now that isn't the final work, I'll be showing that once the show opens but before then I'll share some more work in progress photos.

The final show opens next week Wednesday, more details in next post!
Thanks for stopping by.
