FREEZING

The first freezing work that I’ve done is with the tray underneath my freezer and I tried to place straws. Just to see what sort of effects I could get.

After being offered some use of the university space I decided that I wasn’t going to for several reasons one I feel that’s too late. Could not negotiate around work and travel time and other factors.

So the moral to the story is that I figured by the time I spent the amount of fuel on attending University everyday I may as well go and buy a freezer so I found one on Gumtree and set to freezing straight away!

  • Trying to find ways the keep the plastic under water
  • Freezer full of artworks
Trying the same works I did with water and freezer tray. Found it tricky to keep the plastic from floating away.
Frozen work, removed the item pressing plastic down and re freezing to make a more solid block.
Finding different ways to keep items under the water

Although I’ve been collecting for months and I’ve had a general idea of themes around the work because I’ve changed the items into a different material I’m feeling very lost in way of the work not being enough and in way of the work not looking good enough. It’s like I can’t bring my idea to fruition so do speak.
