A2 Coursework: Mythology and Legend

A2 Coursework

(In which I was allowed to play with my favourite myths and legends!)


The Phoenix


Experimented with burning feathers and doing screen prints based upon the photos I captured



Worked with some basic inclusion in glass pieces - the glass piece on the left had a feather between two sheets of glass and formed a feather-shaped air bubble, something I hadn't expected but really liked!


One of my bigger coursework pieces was a Phoenix-inspired corset. 100s of feathers to dye and sew onto the back pieces of the corset!! 
Kindly modelled by my wonderful friend Alice (who was my muse through most of A-Levels).





Apollo and Daphne



Icarus

Last coursework project of A2 year was articulated wings, inspired by Icarus. I spent an exceptionally long time making the wooden frame perfect, before melting was all over them and setting them on fire to recreate Icarus' fall...





After the fall of Icarus - aka my wings post-destruction and fire.
