Falling Body

Falling Body

This is a sculpture of me made out of saran wrap and tape. We first start by wrapping whatever body parts you want to be together in the saran wrap. Next after everything is covered in saran wrap then you put duct tape covering all of it. Once you are done with that then it is time to cut yourself out. We used a special box cutter so we could avoid cutting our clothes and ourselves. Once you are to this point you tape it all back together and if you did what I did with your legs and body in separate parts you attach them with tape. The idea of this project was to make the sculptures look like they were falling so I hung mine like mine was falling off a cliff. I wanted to make it look like it was actually me which didn’t turn out very well since it did not have enough layers wrapped around me as I should have so the shape was deformed which is why I put newspaper in it. If I were to do this again I would make sure my partner puts at least 3 layers of tape around my body so it does not fall apart.
