Shadow screens- making

 
Spread out the fabric to begin arranging the shadows and tacking into position.
 
 
I experimented quite a lot with the layout before i was happy with it..
 

 
 ...like the letters set out in a jumbled fashion, to link with string puppets

The finished Cathedral.


Arranging layout and moving the whole piece up and down the fabric, id decided on the centre scenes positions but also needed to judge where the lighting would be in relation to the shelf etc



 
 I was satisfied with the above layout, so then slid them under the fabric and began tacking the card shilhouettes to the fabric- this proved quite fiddly and difficult due to the voile like fabric warping and not keeping its shape, the process was very time consuming but couldnt see another method that didnt involve sticky dots, that were visbale when light was shone.
