I decided to continue with my first project and expand on it. I continued with the same materials (CDs, Fishing Net and Fishing Line) and tried to let the process dictate how it turned out. I moved away from the symbolism and created shapes as they occurred to me during the process.
I did not have a final plan for this work. I went in to the gallery and went in with the shapes I had created and put them together in a way I felt they should go. I feel the pieces flowed well together and the colours complimented each other. I also liked the juxtaposition of the materials. The harshness and aggressiveness of the CDs, compared to the delicate nature of the netting.
I looked at ghost nets, Sarah Sze and ocean documentaries for inspiration.
