FMP (Final Major Project) Inspiration!!
As I knew my skills lay in fabric manipulation I went on a search for books and text to inspire me. After a lot of searching this book by Collette Wolff; "The Art of Fabric Manipulation", gives you techniques and step by step stages on how to manipulate fabric. It also suggests different way in creating a similar effect.
One technique I really liked was "Shibori". This technique particularly stood out to me because of it textured look and 3D element. When I first looked at this technique it reminded me of octopus suckers and then from there I began to think out how you can see manipulations in nature and natural forms.
Once I had looked at natural form I thought I would try and go the other direction and research man-made objects that have a resemblance to fabric manipulation. Many buildings and structures are made from manipulating the buildings materials.
