Anthony Caro evaluation part B



Olivia Grain

                                                   Anthony Caro project Part B:


When constructing my final sculpture I only had one difficulty. Once I had attached the pillars to the base, I found that they were too far apart for that arches to fit securely into the gap, therefore I had to wrap a piece of duct tape around two pillars so that they would stay in that position once the adhesive had set. Apart from this, constructing my sculpture worked really well. To hold the pillars in place, I had use the pillar drill and a chisel to create 4 holes, so that I could fit pieces of wood into the base, which would hold the pillars securely without using any glue. 
                                                     

I then used glue to assemble the arches, all attached in different directions to make it look more abstract, which I think worked really well. I found it both easy and challenging to assemble my sculpture, as every fit together perfectly and turned out great, however I found it difficult trying to figure out where to place the arches and balustrades when I was assembling it. I am really pleased with how my sculpture turned out as I am not very good at trying to create things in 3D, so to be able to create this made me feel a lot more confident about my 3D skills. I wouldn’t change my sculpture as I really pleased with the outcome.
