lights camera action...

because of the cone shape of the last piece....i decide to use a cylindrical form...a long kitchen roll tube...i cut the domino silhouettes around the tube and then decided to photograph the shadows made on the inside of the tube ...

negative and postive

out the window into the darkness....

i then decided to change it up...i found a larger toilet roll tube and instead of cutting the silhouettes on the outside , i made forms and placed them on the inside...i shone the light into it and photographed the effects...

looking out the window again....

on to the next one....

or my next phase i think i will focus mainly on the whole shadow/light effects.... cutting simple domino shape to make silhouettes...

i think this part really shows the fluid like movement of the dominoes as they fall...

falling dominos

the shadows are very evident here....

turned it into a cone shape shoulder pad

the reason the shoulder pad is connected to the arm is to reflect the idea of the game of dominoes... statistics show that poeple are most likely yo use their right hand to set up a line of dominoes or to play the actual game....

movement of the game....

i made this print using the wooden dominoes i made a few weeks ago ...i inked them up individually and lay them down...i lay them down as if i was playing the game of dominoes (as in 3 joined to 3 etc etc)...i let the movement of the game decide the overall pattern...

i then decided to create plaster molds of the image.... 

this was the first attempt...and as you can see the uneven walls caused the sides to be uneven...ill know next time!!

second attempt....i made a frame to make sure the walls were smooth and even...

all three attempts..

the final mold on the original print... 

burning dominoes....

to relate the dominoes and the whole matches thing...i decide to light some dominoes on fire...i tried to do it with the wooden ones but the coating the manufactures had on it wouldn't allow it so i used the plastic childrens ones i bought in mothercare instead...

the green thing....

     created this string of crepe paper dominoes to reflect the flimsy shadow forms i was recording earlier

just happened to curve it like this anf then BOOM it was a necklace :)

it also morphed into a headpiece...
