Articulate

This is my response to a task we carried out in the week of 3D-section. The task was consitant of recievieving a word and create a work relevant to the particular word. My word was "Articulate" and I created this work as my response that word. I was mainly focused on  articulations, the movement of lips and shapes they create while pronauncing specific letters. In addition I also combined it with the technical element of having joins or joint segments creating some sort of a chain. This would relate to the ability to speak fluently and coherently as in this work each segment symbolises a lip in a specific mouth shape. These mouth shapes represent letters based on observation and researcher of the mouth movement. They are all joined together in order to created a spelling of a word, the word I was given, articulate. Also it is arranged in a systematic order so it reads from top to bottom with segments under each other and from left to right with segments next to each other.

This work was created with processes of cutting, creasing and scoring paper with a little use of staples to create and maintain the shapes. The segments were joined together with stitches.
