#taction4d

Installed sheet from crit day! Some of my favourite things I sewed on (I spy time?) are:

a piece of tile I found on a hike in my hometown

a iridescent shell I found on a trip to Toronto island with my boyfriend

a rabbit lego piece

a bead that says ‘love me’

a piece from a broken charger

Testing it out with the projector

These sketches are more of my process

This one is trying to figure out mouse controlled visuals.

My friends Interacting with the installation! Thank you Nav, Anusti and Hana <3

almost my final hydra sketch, just adding overlayed noise controlled by the mouse.

Also going to either put my sketch inside a webpage or just hide the code.

To go with my coded filter I want to create a screen for it to be projected on! I'm using the same fabric, ribbon and beads as in my book, hoping to tie them together.

I was really inspired by all the small trinkets you find in antique stores, and things that people collect. When I was younger my mom gave me a tin that had all these treasures she collected when she was a kid, I'm thinking about all those objects and the act of collecting. It's so tactile, like keeping an object (eg. a smooth rock or shell) in your pocket to hold.

I went to Courage my Love to get beads and objects for this project and the interior totally fits this idea. They have all these bins and drawers, you just want to touch everything. I dug through this giant bin of brass objects to find the embellishments I bought.

I have the hand photos just working on editing them, cutting and hemming the fabric, then I'll embroider and embellish. I'm also getting the projector from my dad this weekend and will test projecting as I finish up the coding.

The photo holding fabric concept is inspired by Susan Weil and José Betancourt's Catenary. Also love this piece by Aukje Boonstra, the stitching around the pottery shards is so pretty
