Wearable Art
SketchesExperimentI did multiple experiments, but the one shown above was for the moon phase part of the design. I started off just trying painted and cut cardboard and this ended up not working because it looked sloppy and the colors where to distracting. I then tried to do paper mache, but this ended up looking messy to and not what I was going for. I eventually ended up using binder rings, wire, and hot glue to create the moon phases. In ProgressFinalDescribeMy piece is overall based off of the moon phases and a mediterranean style headpiece. I created my piece with a baseball hat in which I cut off the front section and left two holes in order for me to be able to do bead work. The beads loop down the front of the hat and are connected with a strip of ribbon attached to the center of the hat. On the top of the headpiece are the moon phases which wrap around the wearers head. Down the back of the headpiece there is a light pink vail and a gold rim on the top of it which secures it to the hat. InterpretThe mood/feeling of my piece is medieval and happy. The bright colors on the piece give it a happy feeling. The piece not only reminds me of medieval times, but also Star Wars in a way because there is a similar hat in that movie. Overall, I think that my piece creates and elegant and happy mood to the viewer. AnalyseI feel like I did a good job balancing my piece and making it all work together with a smooth transition. It gives off the outer space vibe that I was going for without being to bold. The gold complements the silver on the moon phases and the pop of color helps to bring the piece together. It is a good balance of color and neutrals. JudgeI feel like my piece was successful. It looks almost exactly like my sketch which is what I was going for. It actually turned out better than I thought it would and I felt like I was able to find the best way to put my pieces together to create this. I love how simple the piece is but, it still has just enough going on in it to make it interesting. The only thing that I would change is filling in the moon phases with hot glue because I feel like I lost some of the elegance of it by doing this.
