Burning 3.







These are more images of my burning experiments, yet here I have focused solely on individual small holes which represent the poppy seeds of opium. As the plant is smoked it seems appropriate to burn through the fabric as I feel it helps represent this. I like the idea of purposefully destroying the work to create something much more interesting and challenging and still follows my main concept. I think with these individual holes it could become something much larger and be used as an upholstery/curtain/wallpaper whilst still having an important message conveyed, helping it fit into a gallery space.
