August Work in Progress

     
 I'm continuing to work on the three-dimensional figures, covering them with plaster cloth. Then they will be painted, inscribed or manipulated in different ways. I'm planning to make as many as I can.


I'm also playing with these collected strips of torn fabric:



Some other ideas I am playing around with are: a life-sized dimensional body made out of silk organza, kind of like a doll with no stuffing. Also a list of personal "truisms": "Don't apologize for being happy", Each day you are living you are also dying", "Having is not the same as owning", "Being idealistic is not a crime". I'm sure I will come up with more.
