Inspired by Christo: Mixed Media Drawings

By Andrea Butler

Each creative outcome can always generate more options just by changing media, scale, technique etc.  and in this project, we had started out with 2D sheets of paper from which we created 3D models.  We photographed the models and then the images were altered to black and white and developed further using drawing and collage.

The previous week, the teenagers had explored paper manipulation techniques to create beautiful paper sculptures and had taken close-up colour photographs of their work, making sure there was nothing to indicate scale in the photos.  In part two of the workshop, we took inspiration from Christo and used the photos to create designs for sculpture, fashion and architecture.
