I decided to experiment with incorporating the fabric from my initial coiled basket into the rope sculptures I have recently been working on in order to introduce some subtle colour and pattern into the  sculptures.

I’m not sure whether I will continue with incorporating the fabric into the sculptures or not.

I intend to photograph the sculptures also in a different environment, perhaps outside in order to help inspire some new forms.
