Going into this project, I definitely had some trouble with
what wanted to create to go onto my body. First, I decided I wanted to make
something that was going to on my head and then came to the idea that it would
involve my hair. I had then went out and bought a light fabric and was going to
braid it into my hair and then keep extending the fabric down into one long
braid. Once I had braided one fabric into my hair, I continued the braid down
with different colors and different fabric materials. After I got it all
braided together and laid out on the ground, my next step was figuring out what
kind of movement I wanted it to do. First, I was testing it out by throwing it
off the second floor of the art building to the ground, but had trouble
deciding what to do once it was thrown off.I began messing around with the long braid and came up with the idea of
rapping it completely around my head. For my recording, I started out with
having the fabric already being rapped around my head and then began slowly unwinding
it off. Once the fabric was completely off my head I sat down on my knees and
started to wind it up in a circular motion around my arm to exemplify the
length of it more. Overall, I was very happy with my decision on using this
idea for my body movement project.
