Working on transcription idea, possibly using techniques of wirework cuff that I made last year. I'm basing a motif on the arched decoration on the Accademia building.
Made a paper maquette. The rolled paper 'beads' represent the supports at the base of the arches. I imagine this as being a 3-D framework above the beads, so having a triangular cross-section. But now I'm not sure about the wire wrapping, between the arched struts. I like the openness and delicacy of the framework on its own, and the clean white look, which echoes the frilled cuffs of later Renaissance fashion.
Will try different materials to develop this further, and also work on the idea of a cut out black foam piece.
