For this project, I had two different paths of exploring primary forms. First, I wanted to explore ways to connect separate forms into a more unique and complex form. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inspired by the process of jewelry making, I scaled-up created chains, rings, and charms with a hole in them. The organic forms of charms were inspired by Henri Matisse\u2019s cutouts. My original goal was to create multiples so I can create a mobile that can be hung on the  ceiling. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a continuation of scaled-up jewelry making, I made chains by applying  the donut shape into more rectangular shapes. While it wasn\u2019t planned, I found myself interacting with the chains like accessories or body pillow which was extremely fun. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the second path, I was inspired to make a vase of some sort. I first started with a simple cylinder within a cylinder shape that resembles a mug. Using fur fabric, I wanted to make the mug-like vase feel surreal with its unusual texture. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For this final piece, I used rhino to mash 6 spheres to make a cloud-like shape with a cylinder cut out. This one was a further exploration of the \u201cvase\u201d but more abstract and complicated. Then I cut off the form with 3 planes to split them into patterns. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I enjoyed the process of creating as I go, being inspired by the shapes and the interactions I would have with those objects. Mastering the donut technique was fun and I found myself wanting to make more of those in different scales, patterns, and fabric. I also loved the sensation these stuffed objects created, and it is definitely something that I want to keep exploring and making. My biggest challenge was sewing the rhino file together. Since the 2D patterns were very complicated to begin with, it was a challenge to piece them all together and create a perfect sphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
