STARTING POINTS
initial ideas as starting points are
Emotions that compelled me:
stunned hummingbird – I once held a stunned hummingbird whilst travelling;
whirling dermish – the energy from that controlled religeous whirling is very interesting;
Birds – terror, hitchcock.
Control/Formations:
synchronised swimming;
red arrows;
soldiers.
I’m hoping to combine these ideas – possibly the terror of the everyday.

The folded raven is an idea that I had whilst doing a drawing workshop with Rupert Hartley on space and architecture in the centre for drawing. The fold is an architectural theory. The abstract grass folds onto the next page and I was also thinking about the tyranny of the page.
