Structure Inspired Images
Here
are some of my initial drawings, based around my theme, they are directly
inspired by the robust structures of the towering thrill rides found
at Blackpool Pleasure Beach. In these examples I have experimented
with layering, repeating and distorting sizes, I chose to do this as
the dense accumulation of rides at Blackpool Pleasure Beach was
lively and repetitive, with parts of rides overlapping and multiple
sizes alongside one-another. Now that my option choice of Weave and
Stitch has been confirmed, I can develop these patterns into my weave
samples by using them as subtle decoration within the weave and as
bold embroidery backgrounds in stitch.

Within
this project I would like to have two meaningful and connected sides
to my work. One being the pattern and structure of the samples, that
will naturally be inspired by the form of the thrill rides
themselves. The other will be the texture, reflecting the reactions
to thrill rides through all the signs of fear I have discovered.
One artist
that has triggered ideas and designs for this side of my work is Sue
Hotchkins, I chose her due to the worn appearance she uses, which has
been done extremely well; displaying both uncontrollable natural wear along side controlled embellishment. This avenue of continuing
to work on a samples finishes is an area I am eager to experiment
with. After researching artists and designers work on Pinterest I have been able
to extract many ways I can translate my signs of fear into my samples
that will make them tactile and meaningful.
