Weavings

By Annemette Beck
using copper brass as metal threads....



It was as simple as HOLE PUNCHING

Translated information on to card for weaving machines meant weaving was quicker, more efficient and easier...this was the first translated information.

Knots, A Thread Sculpture




This sculpture is also talking about connectivity with threads...
Threads that connect us...
June Kim created this amazing and intricate sculpture of thread going through dials...

So...Materials to represent Connectivity...







Clay sculpture and a cut book mounted on a wooden panel...

But this is the angle I am interested in...


You see those nails there, they represent various structures of your mind, the conscious the ego the super ego and the unconscious... and the string is the connection between them...

My Work

Time to explain what I am doing...
I am in my third year of my BA in Arts and Media...
Very much interested in the conscious and the unconscious mind. Having looked at Freud's structural diagram of the brain I am representing via an installation. In other words 3D.

I started using wood string and some nails ...




Now this....This I like.

Right so its called a Rotary signal emitter.
Its a sculpture or a picture of one... Well it just looks amazing.


Will Carr's sculpture using steel called CONNECTIONS...








Pretty crazy...

Myriam Laplante's neuron sculpture.
Electric sculpture playing with the irreplaceable and essential cell in the nervous system - THE NEURON.





...Eva Rothschild concepts of form and materiality in sculptural work using leather, wood, perspex, incense sticks and used tires transcended their physical limitations...

Quite simple, very geometric...





This is Eva Rothschild installations at a gallery... she works with various materials ...
