Wearable Sculpture

        Working in a team, your task is to use the materials and equipment available to construct a wearable sculpture . This can be interpreted through head wear, body armour etc.

·      Use your sketchbooks as a tool to record your thoughts, findings & sketch your ideas to illustrate your designs as you go along.

·      Have a least 4 design ideas of your own and a group design on a page of it’s own. All design work needs to be well illustrated and be supported with instructional annotation; as well as notes on where you got your ideas from? Explain what impact or mood you wish to evoke with your piece.

·      Remember to photograph your work at various stages. (Step by steps). Mounting these up and annotating them. Explain how you may have made sections and why you may have made changes as you progressed.

·      The Final piece will be presented in a catwalk show to the group and photographed as a team. It must be wearable!?

Finally you present and evaluate your outcome
