3. STRENGHT, DEFIANCE, RESISTANCE leather laser cutting and engraving Modular fashion#

This week we´ve been working on creating moduls to create seamless pieces in fabric, since my work is very realted to the body I´ve chose/designed bodily part shapes after mutilating bodies made with Make Human software and creating ensemble moduls in Rhino and Illustrator, theN trying to figure out the junctions manualy, this shapes represent feelings like express “strength, defiance and resistance”, with a techy aesthetic of empty 3D body structures suspended in space. Some studies have shown that making fists can help humans to cope with stress or anxiety because the mind gets preoccupied with the tightening of the muscle to focus on the issue at hand. The material I´ve used is sheep leather which was first laser engraved with all the mesh texture inside the moduls and then laser cutted using the default parameters of the Trotec speedy machine 400 software.
