5m high in the sky

well this is as far as ive got with the 5m high palstic rope arches...
i made 16 arches and it only made three vaults. to start with i think they looked really cool, and were blowing about in the wind, really free.
more so the arches that are by themselves
when the vaults are all joined together though it doesnt work so well anymore.
its like an in between stage, it either has to be minimal, or it has to be over the top. i think.

well i like the way the lines sit in the sky. its like drawing in space.
sculpting space. dividing space.
in a way it creates an illusion, because it seems like the space has been flattened,it breaks down the perspective. making the 3d space seem 2d, which is a contrast to what a lot of traditional drawing is, on a 2d surface with the intention of making it 3d.

oh and right at the bottom of these pics is the rose window i made.
i love it!!
the cathedral set i make wil definitely have lots of these and other elaborate detail.

and below that is the small wire maquette i made before i started on the plastic. i like it because the wire is rigid, but still flexible, so it can hold the shape, but has freedom. theres a solidity about it.
