My Interpretation

I was unable to start prototyping the figures as the clay had not arrived yet in the strange times we currently are living in. Instead, I focused on what I could do, the gift box. The idea I had was to use a theatre as the gift box with a moving retractable curtain as the main reveal to the rest of the figures. I wanted to paint it all black with white or ivory or gold detailing alongside the velvety red curtain. I created sixteen holes for the bases of the figures to be places, all identical so they can be interchanged. I started with Bristol but quickly ran out. Using the net I made out of the lighter paper, I decided to use recycled chipboard for the final form, hinting at my recipients field of study and interest in recycling and sustainability.
