coloured wool/sound

After being introduced to Gabriel Dawe by Luke from the same studio, I decided to experiment and incorporate colour into a wool-string installation, (like the ones I had been doing).
While I was doing it one of my tutors suggeted that I make it bigger, in order to show off the shape or the movement in which the strings were going.
Here is my first attempt.



My tutor also made a recommendation that I shoud use pins that aren't noticable, rather than the bling bling gold of the thumb tacks. From there I stray painted the next thumb tacks black for the bigger and better! piece.
In between working on these, I started thinking about what way my wall hangings ''of sound'' and what way they should be positioned. And I eventual got round to photocopying more the markings for the back of the wall hangings previously made from photocopies of the string plucking.
