structured flow series: hanging wave

For this piece i will be creating a wave from pieces of found wood. I will be hanging the wood to make a wave form from a collection of twigs. i originally wanted to have a variety of wood in my piece but over this week of "wood hunting" as i've been calling it, i realized that i have only been attracted to twigs and broken branches of trees. i find them a lot more aesthetically pleasing from all the other woods i have seen. with having wood that falls under the same category the pieces i found vary in shape, size, movement, and texture. now that i have my material for the next week i will be prepping my pieces by striping some and staining all the wood a red toned stain.

I've made many sketches and a mock-up model of the sculpture and i think it will fit very well with the series i will be making in this class. this piece has a lot of structure but the flow will be seen with the form these structural pieces will create. im very excited for this piece to come together i think it will be a very successful piece.
