I took quite a few photographs for my last project in my Materials Studies class. It’s basically a mixed media class. The theme was Japan because of the recent tragedy, so the final piece is hung up with a couple of symbolic imagery. Anyway, it’s made of sculpey on a wire armature, the hair is made of embroidery thread and horse hair (next time I’ll use black, unspun wool), the fabric from kimonomono and hand-sewn into a kimono (sort of) by yours truly with embroidery thread. The sculpture was primed, then painted with acrylic paint. Well, well over 40 hours of work.
