Postmodernism - V&A
Went to a Postmodernism exhibition at the V&A last week. Well worth a visit! Here are two examples of things I found particularly interesting:
Once you have flown, your eyes will ever gaze skyward. For once you have been there … There you will go again!”

Final Laser Cut Collection 2: Cut from 3mm Acrylic
Very pleased with the material choice for this collection, also wall pieces
2 designs are shown as illustrator files as had limited time and only managed to cut out 2 designs in Acrylic
Laser Cut Final Collection 1: Made from Card and Acetate
These are wall pieces that would be in repeat to cover the length of a wall
Market Research - Art Signs Interiors
When doing market research for my laser cutting project I would say Art Signs Interiors where the biggest influence on my final collections. Their pieces are often used in hotels and sales centres. I looked at their wall and installation pieces. I liked that their bold pieces would transform a room.
Hanna Werning
Came across this in a fantastic book: Textile Designers at the Cutting Edge. The composition is very carefully thought, making the motifs go together well.
Katie Heeks
When working on my latest project: a laser cutting project, I looked at Katie Heeks work. I really like the build up of layers she creates and this is something I wanted to do within my own work.
Johan Carpner
Love the boldness of Johan Carpners work, always a fan of black and white! Strong graphic influence in her work. This piece makes you feel like you are looking through a forest in to the trees.
