Once I found some materials that actually excited me I had another go at 'Finding Form' which was a workshop Fiona ran a few weeks ago. At the time I couldn't get into it but I think it was because I had uninspiring materials. Now I had the orange plastic fencing I was after I really wanted to push it as a material and see what it could do. I used mainly cable ties to fasten it together and sometimes wire. I like how the cable ties add the the rhythm of the samples though. The process of twisting, bending and fastening was quite rhythmic and repetitive too. I tried to consider the forms with and without a surface to develop a better understanding of the structural qualities the fencing has to offer.
