Ceramics
For ceramics I’m going to make a range of functional tableware
vessels based on rock formations. Inspiration for both projects has come from
looking at pancake rocks, layered rocks, stalagmites and stalactites, contour
maps, volcanic and ice formations. I want to concentrate on layering, shape and
being precise. My pieces will be made using moulds, and decorated with coloured
slip layers.
Digital Design
For Digital Design I will be producing a table and floor
mood light that will relate to the Ceramic project in form. Lighting research
and 3D drawings will help me to test lighting effects before I decide how I
will make it and what materials I will use. A separate project will be done alongside
my lighting project but will not be fully made, the project is another lighting
project based on the insides of fruit. I would like to have worked in resin
creating silicone moulds to pour the resin into, but because of time and lack
of equipment and staff specialties I wouldn’t be able to confidently attempt
it. So I will only take my lights to the prototyping stage, creating mini
models, design sheets, design development and 3D visualisations.
Within all my projects I want demonstrate my strong link in
product design, with the prototypes, mould making, Slipcasting, design development,
design sheets and 3D applications. This blog will be alongside my work at my
degree show to highlight my links with the Digital world and show the
development of ideas, inspirations and processes I used to produce my degree
show in May 2013.
