Human Body Required: Inspiration

I feel like the outfits in all of the above photographs could be remade using paper.

This is a project I constructed for my 2D class. I continued the pattern on my pants by creating it out of construction paper and taping it to my shirt, then I used make up to repeat the pattern on my neck.



My teacher posted this video on her Pintrest for Human Body Required.
It reminded me of this video.

Soap.

Brainstorming.
 
 
Chunky horse, model horse, observational horse.
 
 
Chunky horse is chosen for sacrifice.
 
 
Step 1. (Subtraction 1) Remove tail, neck, and head.
 
Step 2. Cut up torso and legs into chunks.
 
 
Step 3. (Addition 1) Cover in white wax.
The burning of a white candle purifies things.
 
WARNING
This gets gross.
Step 4. (Addition 2) Espresso.
 
 
Step 5. (Addition 3) Add soap shavings.
 
Step 6. (Subtraction 2) Drain the espresso.

 
Step 7. Chill.
(it kind of looks like the ice cream at this point)
 
Step 8. Cut into pieces.
 
 
Step 9. (Addition 4) Skewer peices with wire.
 
 
Step 10. (Subtraction 3) Remove little excess peices and any remaining espresso.
 
Step 11. (Addition 5) Put tail, neck and head in center.
 
Step 12. (Addition 6) Drip on black wax.

 
Still looks gross. Black wax only made it worse.
 
Step 13. (Subtraction 4) Take away some black wax.
 
Step 14. (Addition 7) Blue wax to make it look nicer.
 
Step 15. (Addition 8) Place entire candle ontop and let it melt down.
(this is in order to have and 8th addition because 7 is an unlucky number)
(and because this burning of blue candles brings about wisdom, which this sculpture needs because it litterally looks like horse shit at this point)
 
 
Final product.
My horse eats blue hay.
