MIGRATE- day one!!!!!!!!

Today we started the topic migrate, was a funny day as only 20 people where in due to a tube strike! We spent most of the day creating our installations, we had to manipulate our objects quite alot in almost a intercut way, with thought and detail put into it. My theme I'm going with for this project is the migration of  fruit to the UK! So I brought in some Oranges, Bananas, Apples and Lemons! I started wrapping the fruit in string and train tickets, but then this needed some work I thought so I started opening the fruit and sewing on that which I really like!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was quite pleased with my installation today! Then in the afternoon IO started drawing, which I really liked, I LOVE DRAWING, its one of my favourite things to do, the time passes by when drawing I feel, but its so tiring! I'm shattered now!!! I was really pleased with my drawings today! Really enjoyed it!
I had a really good day and cant wait to continue tomorrow! I'm going to manipulate more fruit tomorrow, some tomatoes, carrots, apple peelings, put them in PVA then stitch then draw! It should be quite a good day hopefully!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Below are some pictures of my installation that I took! Hope you like them!!!

Here are some of my orange pictures! I really like them!!!!!

My Banana pictures, they are disgusting to look at! But I quite like them, tomorrow I think I will stitch in to the fruit of the banana! Could be interesting!

My giraffe wrapped up, I think I need to work on this a bit more tomorrow!!

My cut up giraffe! This upset me! Oh well! Tomorrow I will turn it inside out tomorrow completely and sew it back together! Could be interesting!!

My Apple, tomorrow I will spilt this open and into chunks then stitch in them then draw them! Should be good!!

I really enjoyed today and am looking forward to tomorrow hopefully!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!
