Guillermo Kuitca-Maps

We have currently started a new topic in textiles, this time it is our exam questions so we had a chance to pick from different titles then choose our own topic. I have chosen to do Maps and Grids, I choose this after researching it a little becuase I found it interesting and a lot of ideas came to when looking it up.

The picture above is of my visual sheet that I have done for this project, I enjoyed making this visual sheet because I found it interesting and something different to draw. The visual sheet is made up of drawing I have done after researching maps and grids. I was inspired when drawing by Guillermo Kuitca, I found images of his work when looking through "The Map as Art" book.

I found this image of his work quite inspiring as it really links to my work and it has inspired me to look at new ways of doing samples. I think that his work is unique and very inspiring for me to study for my project.

 

I found this picture very inspiring because it made me think of different ways I could make a final piece instead of it beign a mannequin like the last project I did. This has made me think about how I can make it in to a sculpture or into something more original.
