Here I was experimenting with suspending my work, I wanted to portray a sense of fluidity and purity. I have almost drew using my knitting to create gestural movement. The composition is central, the loose yarn has almost highlighted a sense of waterfall creating a organic atmosphere.

I wanted to capture an essence of fluidy and flesh like substance to revolt the audience creating an uncomfortable atmosphere. I experimented pouring water into the subject, the sensual experience of feeling sensitive piece is uncomfortable as it creates strange texture, a slimy substance. The fluid media I have used to replicate the amniotic fluid within the human body, intimidating the audience.

I have experimented with different materials, as the cellophane physically represents the amniotic fluid bag, projecting the sensitive subject, holding onto the fluid projecting the subject.
