KHUMBA PUJA
All the panels are now complete. They have been mounted on the contoured wire-mesh substrate and I have now mounted that in the wooden frame. You can just make out the Puja flagpole protruding from the lower wooden frame - it just remains to make the silkflags and attach all them on their lines.
The lighting on this has to be precise to make the most of the light/shadow for the contours and textures on the cloth and I also want their to be movement in the flags. So I have designed its own lighting to provide light and air movement;
the flags and lines will be extremely fine so they move in the air currents.
Another stunningly beautiful piece, very atmospheric.
ReplyDeleteThank you. As an excursion into Tapestry techniques it was more successful than I could have imagined; however, the effect is a little too on the 'literal' side for me; 'atmospheric' is definitely a good description, but I really wanted something that evoked more of a metaphorical 'slap in the face' emotion - I should have had more courage to use the bolder, less-natural, colours I had in mind when I had the first ideas.....but I willreserve final judgement until all the flags are on it.
