withies surface



Health and safety whilst using mod roc; I made sure I had plenty of space to work on, when cutting the mod roc I cut it while it was still in the box because the dust can be harmful to the lungs, my coat and bag was hung up to prevent anyone tripping up and I cleared any spillages so no one slipped.

recycled objects chair



For the spiral I cut the tops and bottoms of a bottle and cut them in half, I used the glue gun to hold every thing in place. To make the arms of the chair I folded in half and folded both ends inwards like the bricks for the newspaper house.
Health and safety whilst making this chair; when using the glue gun, the window was open to keep the room ventilated. We used the gun nearest to the socket so no wires were left around, I tried to make sure I had plenty of space to work on so I didn't burn any one, my bag was hung up so no one tripped up.

withies maquette



In these pictures it shows the spiral for the back of my chair. I used withies that had been soaked for over a day because its easy to bend. I used wire to connect pieces. I also used wire to keep the willow bent because it kept bouncing back to its original form.
Health and safety whilst using wire and withies; when cutting the wire and the withies I pointed it down, so I didn't hit any one, I made sure I had plenty of space to work on, my coat and bag was hung up so no one tripped up and I cleaned any spillages so no one slipped.

Side view of chair wire maquette
I have manipulated the chicken wire to create an arced shape for the arms of the chair.
If I decide to use this I will have melted clocks over them like in Salvador Dali's painting the persistence of memory. I have chosen to base my chair on the surrealism movement, because the surrealist artists were inspired by the psychoanalysis thoughts of the human mind. when using the pliers I cut downwards so the wire didn't hit anyone. I made sure I had plenty of space to work on. My coat and bag was hung up and I cleaned up any spillages so no one slipped.
