3 Steps to a Weave
The Assignment
IND-690-80 Industrial Design Workshop I Pratt Institute, Fall 2010
In collaboration with Gretchen White, the goal of this exercise to create an interative experience using only 3-steps. We liked the idea of slowing our busy minds down a little and concentrating on doing something... something that might be good for the soul.
- Discovery
- Pick up a pre-threaded pin and try to get to the other side.
- Finish by pinning onto the cork on the other side
And as a bonus, when the artwork was done, we switched off the lights and turned on the backlight. This created a very different and exciting way of viewing the work.
Materials: light-weight mesh, broom sticks, 23" wooden quilt hoops (3/4" depth), embroidery machine thread, steel nuts and bolts, 1/4" MDF, 1/2" pine, cork.
Dimensions: 21 feet x 23 in x 6 feet
Whimsicle music: Yael Naïm - New Soul
Many thanks to our participating classmates.
