advice needed

Ok basically i was thinking of doing this collage of churches on paper, because i think it would work better than a composition on wood or soemthing.. so ive done these three.. using oil pastel and oil paint on the third one, which is actually the only one i like but oh well.. so yeah i was thinking of doing a collage of these three and then with my black and white Creffield-like churches in the background of like the inside of churches.. so its like the different mediums and stuff symmbolising the way different churches (religions) control people in different ways in different parts of the world.. kinda thing.. any advice on how i could bring it all together nicely, or push it further or something?



p.s. yes i know i left it late im sorry but i WILL finish it before school!

  1. The paper approach is a good idea - you can continue to play around with composition and consequential meaning. They're all nice, but th e3rd one is particularly strong.

    Rather than hurrying to finish a big piece over the weekend make more fragments and bring them in next week so that we can all have a look and discuss possible ideas.

    The paper approach also allows you to add additional stuff to the palimpsest (texts, found objects etc) It might not need to be pasted down at all - it might become sculptural.

  2. oh i like the sculpture idea. i was also thinking tissue paper to sort of combine it all together. but i was thinking for my next project to be a sculpture made of wood and sand and material to make the interesting pillars in the insides of churches, so maybe i could integrate that into this project, like hanging it up somehow. that could combine the two prjects in an intersting way i think. ill continue to experiment. thanks!
