CLOAK











progression of the cloak 


MY PRIDE


I have experimented with the fur creatures as suits, and now giving them voices without the people, i have chosen Pride and prejudices speech with elizabeth and darcy. the well spoken dialogue i think contrasts the poorly made unwashed sheep skin. the shape, lumpy, unattractive, also contrasts the speech and i think makes them funny.

STAGE COACHING



with a projection of the shots from home, the google maps with the pinky vortex i like. but still this doesn't work as it makes them look like stage characters, and not sculptures. also the projections make them hidden and covers the detail, so i think green screen would work better and with people inside them 

BORING



experimentation of them standing alone. i don't think they work alone that well. not enough substance 

YOU LOVE MY LUMPS


experimenting with the fur creatures as fur suits. with people inside them, making them look dull, lifeless and messy. lumpy, out of shape, large, unorganised, depressing. quite funny

LUXURIOUS///







for exactly the opposite reason, looking at unnecessary, unessential fur such as the bird feathers used in the Hawaiian cloak. but also the fur i have gained from a supplier friend in london, bags full of free fur that is from a manufacture that makes coats out of expensive, new real fur, all dyed different unnatural colours. i want to use this fur though to make a cloak similar, to question human authority and how we use animals skins to excel power. the cloak will look luscious and expensive. the fur has selfish intentions also, as i got the fur for free. but more then that, back to my themes of waste, the fur that i can get my hand on is provided in large rubbish bags full of off cuts of this fur. the fur u use will otheriwise be destroyed or just thrown out. this really bugs me and, although this fur is wrongly used and for unnecessary reasons, i at least want to make use of the unused stuff.
