It's not that blurry, I promise...
So this is Serene. I know I sound like a total freak, but I know everything about Serene. Even though she isn't real. She just came out of my head for this project. Which of course, is the Fibanacchi Spiral. The spiral is her hair, curling up around her lips. With this project, I really wanted to experiment with fabric. Her face is actually japenese silk paper, which is soft like fabric, her hair has ribbon through it. The lines in the negative space are also ribbon, and the colored squares are pieces of fabric. I named her Serene because Serene can be her name, or it can describe her state in the piece.
Tell me what you think...improvements, etc. I'm going to doctor her up I
think.
