Photos of my final installation.

Finally weaving.

I sandwiched my collected individual pieces of craft between the warp and then wove around them to secure them in place.

I had a large warm bulb installed in the centre of my structure so it emits a welcoming glow and resembles an old fashioned lampshade.

I'm weaving with strips of charity shop clothes like I have done previously. This material allows me to create a multicoloured landscapesque weaving.

Another hand-knitted piece that I photocopied then traced onto lino and printed.

The ink that I printed with is pretty old so I'll have to do a reprint but I'm pretty happy with the overall look.

These wool prints will probably be used as motifs on my documentation work and as album artwork for all of the audio that I will be collecting as a part of my project.

More pieces of craft that I received and posted on my Instagram story.

Instagram stories and playing around with presentation ideas.

Just a wee press release I had written for me which is currently being shared in order to draw attention to DJCAD's annual Degree Show.

Metal skeleton MADE.

I had to assemble it upside down as I have no beam to hang it from at the moment. When I am allowed into my presentation space the large metal skirt will be the top of the structure and this is where the surface transducers will be housed. The entire structure will then be warped up and made into a large cylindrical loom that I will weave into.

More specially crafted pieces.

Trying out "branding" for my project. I'm combining images of the crafted pieces I've been collecting with the packaging and notes of correspondence that I have received alongside these pieces.

My "logo" is one of my hand-knitted prints.

Video: Snippet of my interview with Frieda Strachan that perfectly captures the essence of my project.

MORE PUBLICITY MORE!!

Working out sizing.

With the structure for my shade possibly standing at 4ft tall and with a diameter of 3ft, I now have to work out the technicalities of filling this large surface area with my individual pieces of craft.

This only the work of 5 participants and with the work of many more to still be delivered to me this size should do pretty nicely as there will be enough gaps between each piece of craft that a nice amount of light should be able to shine though from the centre of the shade.

Possible covers for accompanying documentation/participants book.

Playing around to see what colour of wool I should weave my large structure with.

More pieces from some wonderful Aberdeenshire based crafters!

Crafted pieces all laid out so I can see them in relation to the surface area of my overall weaving. Still a few more pieces to come.
