‘‘GAIA’ free – form sculptureGAIA’ free – form sculpture The ‘GAIA’ mythology always fascinates me so when I had to create a free –

form sculpture for my University project. The aimed of the was to create a sculpture made from found and old objects i.e. old cables, rusted nails, driftwood etc.

I decided to interpret the ‘Free Form’ sculpture by adopting the idea of ‘GAIA’.

With the influence of the movie called ‘Final Fantasy’, I used recycled old computer printer cables and creating an abstracted free - form of a woman which represents the ‘GAIA’.

Here, ‘GAIA’ took another form, where the living organism given birth to a new technology. The computer printer cables represents the newly evolved organisms. In order to achieve the organic feel of fluid cascading through from the top to the bottom I used wall paper paste to convey an image of organic fluid.

This sculpture was also influence by the Matrix movie where Neo was preserved on the amniotic fluid.

These images represents the amniotic fluid or organic fluid
