FMP Man-made and natural form, primary research
Museum of Science and Industry
My project is about man-made and natural organic form, I wanted to assemble this two subjects and create textile and surface pattern. Its obvious that I had to revisited M.S.I due to its enormous collection of machinery, I was there before for previous brief and I felt very connected with this place. Therefore, I found lots of machines different sizes, colors and functions, machines gears which what most caught my eyes.
To me, these gears were not just a wheels on the machines, I was passionate for their function, how they mesh with another, making machines work and their age. Because they were made since 1808-90,all theses factors lead me to take some consideration. I felt like they had something special to look at and be inspired to create something interesting , I know it seems weird but is what I felt when I saw them on the museum.
Sketches
Love the shape, size even the colour. The machines are ancient, and it is impressive they were well looked after. So I have drawn different types of machines gears, using other techniques drawing in my sketchbook.
Attractive drawing soft pastel on sketchbook.
