My experience of creating your own tool (loom) from scratch.
At first, I used the thread which creates the loom to make a texture on it. then I add plastic on it to create some transparent base. after that, I started to add color on it. I really enjoy the process of creating this loom. The repeating step makes me relax while making my own design add more interest to it. the process of making it is easy to follow so that I can create the thing I want.
My material decisions: What material did you decide to use and why? How does the material relate to your poem?
I decided to use the thread which creates the basis of the loom because I like that color a lot and for my poem, it gives an undecided and blue feeling so I want the color to be pure and unite. also when people see it instead of looking at the color they will consider the texture on the loom first.
I also used purple, blue and black color yard because there is a paragraph in my poem mentioned the way I consider what chaos is. I feel it’s like the color of the sky so I added those color I mentioned in my poem into the loom to express my emotion.
I also used the plastic bag in the loom because I feel undecide and concern when I was writing this poem. the transparent t color of plastic bag can express this part of the emotion and the knot on the loom create a chaos feel.
my Poem
Aurora exist, cloud and chaos;
Tracy exist, jelly and bubble;
Sky exist, rose and lemon;
Inspiration comes with hard work
Dream exist, dream exist
It runs away, vanishing in the night
Haze enfold me
Morning of May 12th, birthday party
First time in my life
The evening of March 3rd, the first night
In here, set
Overnight, wake up
Lie, soft and cold, the sound of charcoal
Getting angry to me, bring me down
Wakeup, tomorrow is still raining
If inspiration exist,
Is it here?
I want, I create
Like the string on the running kate
Like salt add in the water of the fishbowl
I can see, I can’t touch
Said I’m not impossible to touch
Blue and purple merge, chaos
A dirt color comes with the morning
Pushed me, packed up, run away
Smile before cry
Things were made and destroyed
Like the light from the phone in the midnight
Process photos of creating your piece.
