My project is a series of work exploring untraditional materials and natural elements. My creations are influenced by landscapes, such as the colours created by light reflection, and the textures on the surface. I am inspired by the work of Japanese artist Mari Ishikawa, and how she worked with the beauty of nature. The main material I used is Jesmonite, to create the structure with colours and textures. I selected Jesmonite because it can create a natural image, and it is hard enough to use as a strong base for my works. Using this material was a challenging process because it is hard to produce the shape I desired. However, this challenge was an enjoyable one, as it helped to explore techniques to achieve a better visual impact.
I hope that my project will show my own style and individual aesthetic through landscape exploration.
