TEXTILE DESIGN: JESSICA RANKIN• Jessica Rankin’s work might best be described as mental
maps. Working on a sheer fabric called organdie, her images
invoke cartography or geographic diagrams. Made from
thousands of tiny embroidered stitches, Rankin delineates
shapes, boundaries, and contours, interconnecting and
locating them with miniscule text. In Hour To Hour, which
incorporates 4 gossamer swatches, Rankin’s constellation
appears to hover as gauzy illusion, with tiny green islands
anchoring fixed location in nowhere. Labelled with poetic
stream of consciousness text such as
IHEARDTHEMBUTWASNOLONGERTHERE and
COMPLETELYBYSURPP, Rankin’s map refutes tangible
space to chart the mystical terrains of memory, the
subconscious, fiction, and passing time.

Jeff Wall, A sudden gust of wind, 1993

(image manipulation). His inspiration was the Hokusai print

AIR & 3D Design
For both children and
adults, windmills, kites and paper planes have
proved popular across ages and cultures.
At the annual Giant Kite festival in Yokaichi
designers from across Japan are invited to
showcase their works.

More recently, artist Andy Goldsworthy works with the individual elements as here in Hazel stick
throw, banks, Cumbria, 1980 .
The solid ‘earth’ sticks are thrown into the air creating a pattern determined as much by the elements
themselves as the throw – the elements: the stick shapes & weight (earth), the wind (air) etc.

Fire can be used to signify energy, power, destruction, speed, the
supernatural, cleansing and excitement to name but a few.

Chinese artist Cai Guo-Qiang uses fire in this
installation piece entitled Red Flag, 2005.
What might this artwork mean?
(Hint: think about what the red cloth
resembles and perhaps symbolises)

NINA CANELLFragile raw materials, such as electricity, gas and
water, materialise into binding agents, with
conductive properties resembling the fumbling
human attempts to make contact.
Photocopying ink was placed on
marble and 100,000V was passed
through the marble slab, a fractal
pattern was created
