these were some images taken from the ikon gallery what image shown above is the hand woven bag that by first glance looks like an average image of a typical bag but then when you look closer you can see that it is woven by hand .

another ideas
I have also had an idea to create my tree ot of wire as this is an uturnitive idea
as this will make it more of a stylised tree and could give a whole new look to the tree
or i could use a real life tree and add on my family history ect on to that i could then calve in wat i wanted im the trunk of three this is a plus as this would be tricky to do it on the papier mache version

- papier mache tips
- Experiment with liquid starch (undiluted)!
- Use wallpaper paste. Follow the directions from the manufacturer to mix this paste.
- You can use regular white glue mixed with a bit of water. Mix using about 1 part water with 2 parts glue.

nan golding one month after being battered 1984
this is one of nangoldins most memerable pieces of work it shows her after being batterd by her boy freind after a argument .
As you can see she has used make up to hight light her battered up face as the red lipstick indicated her blood shot eye and her bright bruises it also has been used as red indicates danger and violence that she has been shown by her boy freind .
the reson i have choosen to resurch na goldings work is because she is simular to tracey emmin in t he sence that her work is autobiographical and quite frank but were as tracy emmin creates work nan golding captures this in a photograph .
