| exploring folds that i had seen in the paper |
My object for this project was a garden glove. I first made quck glove to get my head around it then I was going to do paper mache and I started building the glove but the piece looked interesting so I didn't go with the paper mache and thought I would translate the piece as best I would in clay. This proved to be very difficult as the clay kept falling apart. I then decided to use paper porcelain. This was a very interesting process. Really enjoyed using this. While it took a good while to get it to work I eventually learnt how to manage the paper clay. Learnt a lot about the whole process. Firing proved to be difficult as well as the pieces did collapse. I also tried to tanslate into clay my original paper glove and decorated this with ceramic pencil. With the paper porcelain I didn't use any colour as the porcelain looked impressive in the white.
