Todays lecture from Amy Cogden was massively inspiring. She explained her process and journey from NUA in 2009 to where she is now, studying her PHD. It was so inspiring to hear her experiences and her problem solving and determination. Her interests with science and bacteria doesn't directly link to my current work but I do find it really exciting. I love her rigorous use of documentation and recording; it has reminded me to record well to get the best results. She also explained how she reflects and refines to ensure she doest go off on a tangent- which I think relates to me right now. I am experimenting and playing with materials and keep finding my self getting too excited about the results and not recording them accurately enough to repeat the process again.

Today I enhanced some scans of my screen printed papers on photoshop to be then sublimated printed. I aimed to use these to collage with to transfer onto fabric and also other materials.

I am going to weave this evening with polyester to then print on with the collaged papers.
Today, I also experimented with three different yarns I ordered from Hand Weavers. I also aim to weave with these tonight on my rigid heddle loom to then print on tomorrow with the papers I printed earlier. I look forward to see the results as the three yarns and very different properties, which link to my structural drawings.
