Black and white

To start my black and white construction project i decided to research artists such as Viktor and Rolf, Hussein chalayan and Tierry Mugler. I decided to research first than start the construction to broaden my ideas and it gave me some really cool inspirations.
When it came to constructing i paired up with Sam and we started playing around and experimenting with different shapes using fabrics as well as card and paper. We constructed a bodice on the stand out of fabric and then attached our paper and card sculpture to the bodice.

Right this is the first time I'm writing on my blog because of the mixture of not having the Internet at home and i was being quite slow on how to use and update my blog, but i think i have hang of it now. So here it goes... Also I'm not going to lie i have been a tiny bit caught up in uni life, only a tiny bit though. AUCB, i love it here. Everyone on my course is lovely, the teachers are easy to talk to and i have enjoyed all my lessons so far. Hopefully it wont change. My first week here was an induction week. I didn't actually realise that we were going to be spending the whole week on our induction, but it was a really good way of meeting people an d getting to know my friends in my class better. There was also a freshers fair on for two days were they were giving out lots of free stuff including pizza hut pizza which did make my day. I stood by that stand quite a lot. We also went on a trip, which had a lot more walking in it than i thought and on sand so it gave my legs a nasty unexpected work out. I suppose doing some form of exercise for once isn't so bad. The best part about the day was getting to the pub and sitting down with a pint and chicken nuggets chips and beans, and just socialising with everyone.
My second week at Uni we started our lessons and after our induction week it was nice to get into some form of routine and to start learning. As strange as that sounds i forgot over the summer how much i actually enjoy it.....
