MANCHESTER ART GALLERY

A trip to the exhibition, ‘Jerwood Makers Open’ at Manchester Art Gallery, as primary research for the project, resulted in inspiration for my jumper making. Mark Corfield-Moore’s ‘Celestial Meteors 2013’ explores various weaving techniques. I really liked the use of trailing materials, knotting and the overall distorted illusion of the pieces, which I think link really well to my theme of punk and the messy, fractured aesthetic I am trying to create. I am going to look into weaving techniques, inspired by Moore, experimenting with textures and hanging threads further.
