Update

Woo! I see light at the end of this long tunnel!... I think...


This past week:
I reprinted the ear and redrew and printed the lips segment. I realized there's a segment of the hair that looks way lighter than the other pieces... but I don't care!
I also ran around the art school doing off-site stuff. This weekend, I did a mounting trial. I played with the spray mount and linen hinging tape.



Here is the collection of prints I chose to be in the installation. I lightly color pencilled a few. Black color pencil worked great, I didn't really use the white color pencil because it kind of make the blacks a grey muddy blue.



These are all the segments after mounting! It was way easier than I thought.. except one print buckled A LOT, so I had to replace it with another edition. Its all good though! In the bottom left, is a lighter version of the nose which is what I used as the mounting trial.



This is a trial of a hinge. I licked it like an envelope and works pretty well. Last night, I made the rest of the hinges and made them more presentable.


Hours: I'm almost done!! This week I have to build the grid structure and go to home depot to find the fixtures to go into the dry wall ceiling. I found these EZ-Anchors on HD's website and they hold up to 75lbs from dry wall - I think these were what Mark were talking about. I'm waiting for the reflective Mylar to be shipped to my haus. Thursday, I meet with Stephanie Douglass to go over my 2nd draft.
