Just a few experiments with transfer printing, tie-dying and fake blood. All of these went towards my journal for a hand-in.

Aunt Fanny: The Legend of a Shirt
Our project was to create and age the shirt from the poem Aunt Fanny: The Legend of a Shirt http://www.exclassics.com/ingold/ing37.htm. Most of the shirt was sewn together by machine, but any parts which could be seen from the outside were hand sewn. It was made and dyed in accordance with the descriptions in the poem. The shirt was arranged in the photos to demonstrate the part in the poem when the shirt is drying, before it was set on fire.

Film Set
Definitely a group effort.
A two room enclosed set, based on 'The Death of Ivan Iliych' by Tolstoy and with the theme of psychological horror in mind. We were each given an item to design, mine was the bookcase. We then divided up the items to be made in small groups. In a group of three we made the windows, upholstered the loveseat, put up the wallpaper, painted it, designed the stencils and then stencilled the walls.
Below are the results.
Puppetry
The first images are of a Punch and Judy-style puppet head made from polystyrene and paper mache, which was then painted and given woollen hair. this is followed by a group effort at making a large cardboard 'rod puppet' for a game of puppet football. The final Images are of a 'Muppet' style walrus puppet for a music video to 'I am the Walrus' by The Beatles.
