Initial Post

This week we found out that we were going to be in a group just the three of us (Bene, Libby and Katherine) which is not only going to make it more challenging, I also think it will make it more interesting as there won't be as many conflicting ideas and it will be easier to share thoughts etc.

We initially began brainstorming potential ideas and decided that we much prefer the idea of the hyperbolic to crocheting. Hyperbolic, we found, gave us more options and was a far more interesting route to us. We came up with some ideas such as exploring the hyperbolic structure to create 3D shapes and from this we thought of the 3D shapes of animals or birds.

We continued to develop this idea until we realised that the best installation was within university on the pillars- we think a vine would be a good idea with the flowers and birds attached to the vine- maybe even a river at the base of the pillar?

We also decided that we should use ALL NATURAL fibres/fabrics to develop a concept that is all about nature/the conflicting nature of natural surroundings and the UTS building. It seems that we are developing the concept of "while UTS is striving to be more environmentally friendly, we can still see unsustainable aspects" (This would be demonstrated through the exposure of the pillar).
