Set up for formative assessment
Progression started from the restrictions to how much wool I used to wrap, to no limitations. Completely covering the pieces of wood I chose to wrap, creating depth through the layering. It became a pre-occupation, one piece would finish, and another would have to begin. Sizing varied, as did colour. There was no single focus on just one colour and in doing this it became an element of both fun and surprise. Fun, in the sense of bringing a smile to your face and surprise in terms of just what was hidden beneath the wool. The materiality of the wool changed the appearance of the heavy hard wood, giving it a sense of weightlessness.
From my formative assessment mid-way through the drawing paper comments made were:
* You want to know what is under it
* Sense of functionality
* Softness of the wool contradicts the hardness underneath
* Playful
* Bodily
* Tension
* Associations that come with wool - light feelings against body ; knitting
* Obsessive - Repitition
* Becomes pictorial once placed on the wall
* Quite a tease
