On Friday 28th, I attended a workshop lead by Richard Sweeney who talked to us about paper sculpting, and techniques on creating interesting paper sculptures using techniques such as scoring, cutting, folding, and making tabs to join paper together. We were restricted in what we did as we couldn't use any form of adhesive, so to begin with, I found it tricky to make anything that was controlled, or interesting. But after practise my forms seemed to get stronger and have some sense of direction. I discovered that using loops was an exciting effect, but no where near as good as some of Richard's work! I really enjoyed experimenting with this though, and found Richard really inspiring, his work is beautiful.
