I chose the words, Sweet, Heartbeat and Darkness to do mood boards, and from this I focused on Sweet, it's fun, playful and exciting. I also found it was gave me loads to work with. The activities I chose for the word sweet, was Glazing, Coating and Sticking.
I played around with swatches using sugar, buttons, glue gun,sequences, ribbons. I came across the artist Will Cotton, I really admire his work and how he portays this 'Candyland'. His work with the ribbons inspired my sculpture, I created and explotion of ribbons which resembled liqorish alsorts.
From the sculpture I was inspired to make a neckpiece. I really liked the idea of all the ribbons drapping around the body, like an explosion of sweets. I'm very happy with my piece and I think the photos really make the piece stand out and come alive.
