A Transitional Object

The outcome of a day long project in which we were each given a phrase relating to our project and asked to make an image.  I decided to take the phrase literally and made a stuffed digestive system which was later sewn onto a wooly jumper.  The photos were taken in Hawkhill Medical Centre, Dundee.

My glorious model is Ben Bainbridge, you should definitely check him out. 

Wrapping Up

Such a neglectful blogger!  The past couple of months leading on from the pasta drawings have (finally!) resulted in a clearer idea about what I'm doing in project wise, hurrah!  And have resulted in me making work which I never quite expected I would do, nice that isn't it?  I started of looking at literal meanings of phrases, first with 'A Transitional Object' (post to follow) and then moving on to look at literal comfort foods.  I've mainly been working around the phrase 'Home Comforts' and have been looking at the ideals of folk art and crafts paired with the literal meanings.  The result is:  quite humorous, a bit strange and very squishy.  What more could I ask for?
