1st workshop - experimental modelling - assignment 1

For our first assignment we had to create a model using white mountboard as a material. We had to read a philosophical text and study a piece of art or achitecture and draw inspiration from the two pieces of work to create a model.

My inspiration was drawn from the following:
- "The Fold: Leibniz and the baroque' by Gilles Deleuze
- The Dominus Winery by Herzog and de Meuron
- Gordon Matta Clark - Splitting

I wanted to create a sculpture that echoed the winery in form and structure, but using the material white mountboard and using folded strips. Then to further transform the sculture further by creating divisions in the architecture to echo the ideas drwan from the work "Splitting" by Gordon Matta Clark.
