This piece was inspired and conceived by the theme of death and decay. Some of the shapes created mimic features that include a rib cage, wings/feathers, decomposing flesh and many more. After making this sculpture, I used the best photograph of it to create a variety of visual outcomes.
The composition was eventually used to influence my third year design work at architecture school, as a landscape concept for my proposal.
One of our modules during my course involved making a platform, like the ones used for safeguards. The design was based on an origami shape I designed from experimenting with one particular origami fold. This particular structure for the base was strong and efficient. I decided to use corrugated cardboard as it’s an easy material to handle and to some extent reusable. Corrugated cardboard has also been used to make furniture and buildings before, so using it to make a platform can be effective. Although it might never be used for the beach due to the fact that it’s not waterproof, it’s still useful as a temporary structure for other locations as a look out or even looking at the view with less construction work and cheaper materials. There are many possibilities for this.
