Swag-Drape Frieze

By Kathy Dalwood 2007

Dimensions
each tile:30cm sq or to commission

An architectural plaster frieze comprising individual panels with indented motifs. The imagery is achieved by direct casting from swags of silk taffeta. The panels can be placed in any order to create a continuous, undulating sequence. The slight misalignment at the junctions between motifs brings an element of unpredictability and friction within the overall context of twisting movement. Any length of frieze can be commissioned. To see the frieze in an outdoor setting see my other artwork page 'Architectural Friezes & Tiles' To see the inspiration behind the frieze visit my blog www.kathydalwood.blogspot.com And for more images visit www.kathydalwood.com
