Paper Stacking


For my first paper stacking atempt I recreated the form of a lime. I cut out pieces of paper and then pasted them together usung wood glue and C-claps. After letting it dry I hit it with a grinder and sander till the shape was satisfactory. 


For my inventive form I wanted to recreate the motion of a chambered nautilus. So I cut out lima been shape and pasted them together at a slight off set from each other.  
Touch:  What I took from this reading is that when working on a piece you can't just rely on one sense. You have to used all you resources. Being able to observe and feel your subject/form you are working with is essential to truly understanding the construction, energy, and organic shape of your subject.
