 This is a progress photo of a body of works I have been working on for my final drawing assessment. I am interested in taking an experimental approach to each work and playing around with the realtionship between my chosen materials, PVA glue, nylon, paint and wool. I am really trying to test their relationship to one another by embedding materials, layering wool and working gesturally with paint into the PVA glue.
I am interested to see how the randomly spread out shapes of PVA glue will hold up and respond to the materials layed down over them and embedded in them.
After some experimentation I have noticed that the more intensly layered areas of PVA glue are responding to the shapes I have created  with the materials and tend to give way to the materials and bend and curl in different ways.
I also want to think closely about the gestural marks and patterns that I am making and generate experimantal works that respond to onw another and allow a conversation to devlop amongst them when they are all placed on the wall. I am planning to re arrange them on the wall, possibly sprawled across one wall and arranged so that there are links between the works in terms of shape, colour, marks, and materials. Some relationships may be strange and some may not have much in common which will force the viewer to explore the wall and search for their own links and find possible commonalities.
