Week 3 - Texture and Materiality

Fiona Hall
This piece is a photo of a sculpture on a black background. The sculpture is made from a tuna fish can, which has had it's lid pulled back. Other pieces of tin metal were then cut into thin strips, and then bent and twisted into various directions, and fixed to the tins edge. The tops of the mushrooms were made from other excess tin that was cut and scoured into the forms they are. Hall used a pliers and tin snips for this piece.

Rosalie Gascoigne
This piece was made from various pieces of wood, ccut into wedge-like shapes. They were then left rough on the cut edge, and painted giving it a slightly rougehd up texture and colour. The pieces were then strategically places in two piles, side-by-side, infront of a white backdrop.
