Task 8  "Cooking" a sketch Model

Cooking? Well maybe heating up is a better way to describe this technique.

​

Using the collection of odds and ends in the workshop you are to create a model  that is inspired by the materials themselves. If you add glue to Coco Pops what could you make? If you bent plastic spoons with the heat gun and addes nails what would that make? The possibil;ities are only limited by your imagination!

 

So imagine away and create some fantastical forms.

​

You only need to make ONE model and then photograph it it and present it similar to the paper model exercise.

​
