A new material

Tonight at yoga we were using some blocks, and Carrie, the teacher, had some made from upholstery foam. I rather like the colours, surface pattern and texture; perhaps its a new material to be introduced to my art work. Apparently it comes in a variety of colours too...

Watching silicone move

Over the past couple of days I have been filming the pouring of silicone over different surfaces.




I'm interested in the contrast of materials, the glossy surface of silicone against matt cardboard, soft foam, delicate tissue paper or shiny metal.


I have been filming the blurring of colours as the silicone forms paths down a surface, and then the dripping of silicone as it reaches the edge. These change as the silicone becomes more viscose with the passing of time.
