Weaving week 2

This week we did some rotations and I moved over to another machine, For this week I decided to concentrate more on the combination of both natural and man-made fibres and yarns which is a concept I gained through looking at Anne Goddard's work last week.I used a 2 ply cotton, a thin wool and added a viscose which gave a sheen to the sample. I used a similar colour pallet and colour ratio off darker brown to the lighter cream shade to create this sample. The theme of Anne's work is how humans influence the natural world this shows strong links to my theme of traces as it is the trace that is left behind from humans on the natural world.

I researched into another artist Jonathan Brilliant, he is a weaver that creates large scale instillations I find his work very inspiring with its shapes and circular looping forms this is something that links well to my theme and samples, his textural surfaces are also something that works well with both my samples and drawings.
