For the start of my new project, which is Joints and fittings, I went to the Tate modern gallery to find some inspiration for my final outcome. At the Tate, there was an exhibition of Abraham Cruzvillegas work which filled the whole of Turbine Hall. The work consists of wooden triangle plant pots which where scattered around the room creating a very intriguing pattern made of triangles.
I have chosen to blog these two images for the reason that they look the same but are very different. The image above was shot from an eye level, which illustrates the view one would have if they stood at that exact spot. What I like about this view is the way the triangle pots overlap over one another due to the change of ground level as you go to the end of turbine hall.
The second image, although taken from a similar angle, is more raised up compare to the first image, giving it more of a birds eye view.
This projects is about joining and fitting different materials together without using glue, and one thing I like about Abraham's work is the fact that he has used finger joints and dovetails to join the wood together which is what my project is about and also a technique of joining two materials together that I may take to my own work.
