OBJECT FANTASIC FORGERIES

chosen object from the boijmans is a headpiece by Shilpa Chavan for her own label Little Shilpa from the spring summer 2014 collection

the site of Little Shilpa: [1]

chosen object by Little Shilpa SS2014 grey matter collection

The 3 most interesting things about this headpiece are: . it's body decoration . it has a cultural origin . it has a symbolic meaning

The designer is from India and uses typical Sari fabrics and classic sari's that she transforms to contemporary designs. She re-use the history of her origin in a modern way. Shilpa is also referring to the old habits and symbolic meaning, like the superstition for having a nose ring on the left side will help by the birth of children.

I tried to fold paper the way the sari fabric is fold and modelled and made a mini headdress from a post-it stap 1, making and forming the shape from wire (iron) stap 2, covering the skelet with paper-mache

After forming the headpiece it's time to get the right texture. For the black edge i'm using indian ink ;-) I bought gold pailletten for the gold band but first a ground layer of email paint because it is so shiny and just normal acrylic paint in a light grey color so the first layer will cover all the contrast of the paper and the second layer will be bright white i'm still in doubt in what way i wanna transfer the plaid print.....

the form is quite well intimidated, but the texture and print are a bit clumsy.
