Throughout this residency I will be exploring the use of other materials and ways of working to extend my ability to create forms which are mostly space described by line. Working to create a group of sculptures for exhibition at the end of the project, I will be looking at pattern, material and form using the laser cutter and 3d printer, and particularly with the 3d printer, exploring the possibility of intersecting forms.
Laser cutter cutting

Today I actually got to use the laser cutter (thanks Nadia!) - unfortunately we couldn't work out how to cut metal, but I decided I had to use it for something so I've cut the triangles-leaves I'd prepared for one test ... used card, now to work out how/whether I can form the card into shapes and glue to create a sculpture for the exhibition. I was surprised at how long it all took, but great to have some results at least!
