Week 10 - Materials

For this week assignment, Kyveli and I decided to play color pencils shavings. We wanted to play with the delicate aspect of the shavings and see what we could do with them.

We made some experiments mixing the shavings with different kinds of glue to create a flexible transparent surface/material. We could use them to make bracelets or if we had larger surfaces we could a bag or something else. We liked the effect of this surface when exposed to light.

We started thinking about the delicate aspect of the shavings and how we could transform this fragile material into a rigid material, trying to change it's appearance and maintaining the beauty of it.

We started by overlapping layers of shavings with glue to get the desire effect of rigidness and playing with the color of it. The result took a form of a pin/brush.

During the process we took some picture to document this assignment and I really like it since the aesthetics and colors of the shavings were really beautiful
