PAPER WEAVE EXPERIMENTS

Below are a series of paper weaving experiments.
This one is a standard over-and-under weave. I used brightly coloured paper strips such as yellow, green and bluee, against a black background to advance the colours. The strips were positioned differently, strapped through different slits.

This is an experiment in the style of Allison Diaz. Most of her collage works had the strips in a diagonal position, so I copied her style. it's simple but effective, so I quite like this experiment.

This is in the style of Greg Sand, with some accompanying text in the form of a quote, written in the style of Leandro Senna. This is a standard weaving, using the primary imagery from the earlier post. I thought that it would be a good idea to add in text, so that I can be certain as to where I would write the text, when producing the final outcome.


This experiment was influenced by Julie Cockburn's 'Enigma' and 'The Sage'. This one could have been better, as the paper strips behind the cut out weren't equal, one strip overlapped the other. However, like Cockburn's pieces, the emotion of the sitter is unknown, so in that respect, it is a success.
