Melted Sculpture


This fabric sculpture was inspired by several pieces of work displayed in the 50Fifty exhibition at Curtin university. Inspiration was drawn from a ceramic vase, Aboriginal painting, abstract painting and a slashed canvas. Although my piece looks nothing like any of those in the exhibition it draws ideas from several artworks on display.

It is composed of felt and organza with free motion machine stitching. The fabrics were cut, slashed and welded together using a soldering iron.
