The Lego Hatstand

Today we made a start on creating the new sculptural art piece, a hatstand made from lego, jason headed down to the waterfront art project space with a rucksack full of lego and, referring to the waterfront's own in house hatstand we began our journey modelling our own lego version.. we managed to sift through the lego we had and put our bricks into the beginning of the shaft and legs, scaled against the real thing, with some helpful input by waterfront artists as regards to accompanying the work with a lego hat, and umbrella, as well as some of the technical details involved in building. hopefully we will have this thing completed for the next exhibition, as well as collecting some sound files for an accompanying sound track and some video including real time noises of the lego being manipulated and live video from the creation of the hatstand! .. keep tuned for more progress over the coming weeks when we should have the finsished hatstand and video for the song 'got a hatstand, it's made of lego' (WEEK 4)
