Concept












Developing a concept to recreate an owl figure. From the bottom up the texture is created by 'formwork' shapes to give the feeling that the object is a building under construction. From the top down the object has an organic texture, feathered to represent a 'natural' object. Points of intersection show an 'impossible' meshing of materials, with feathers growing of steel. It is unclear whether the 'constructed' is taking over the 'natural' or the 'natural' consuming the 'constructed'.
A ball and socket joint allows the head of the owl to turn 360%, as in real life.
