Urban Influences Week Six

This week I continued with developing my samples and researching artist I came across Jullian Worrel who is a weaver and creates long tapestry works, the idea of having long slim pieces is something that I have really taken inspiration from Jullian as well as her tonal colour way or greys black and white. The composition of her work relates well to the theme of urban as to me it looks as though its some kind of abstract painting of a structure or building. Julliann work horizontally whereas I feel that the pieces would be more effective vertically and o this is something I plan to take forward into my next samples.




I used pleating to create this sample which shows clear links to my visual research. I took inspiration from Juliann Worrel's long pieces to create my own, this sample is effective due to the materials used; I used the same polyester in two different tonal shades of grey to imply the process of weathering, a surface being stripped back. This sample relates well to the theme of urban influences and I feel is simple subtle and effective. I plan to experiment more with scale longer and shorter pieces as I come to create my final samples
