Workshop 2

Before we started Workshop 2 there were some instructions given before we could start creating our individual 3D form,

  • Firstly, we needed to fold our piece of A2 paper in half (length ways)
  • Next, we had to make a border 15mm from the edge of the page
  • Then, we needed to cut strips all the way down the page 10mm appart
  • Finally, when all this had been prepared we can begin creating our forms.


This is the first form I had created... I used glue to fix the ends and some staples as a quick method of keeping the form together. The shape is reminiscent of a sea side shell.


The shapes and shadows created by the form look organic. It was created by playing with the sheet... pulling and twisting to see what shapes were being made.

My second form was created by folding the sheet into a fan and bending it to get a wavy shape... then I found when twisting it I got this form, which is again similar to a sea side shell.
I fixed this form with staples again... they are quick to use and easy to remove, should I need to change the form.


This interior image gives a interesting perspective that looks similar to a spiral, or the twist of a snail shell.
