Cardboard Catwalk

The cardboard catwalk took place at the Manchester School of Art for the fifteenth consecutive year and was based on the theme of  'The Odd Couple' -  this was because the two processional outfits/ wearable garments/ objects that we were making (entirely out of cardboard) were influenced by one pre 1950's artists and one post 1950's artists- our pre 1950's artist was Henri Matisse and our post 1950's artist was Cai- Guo- Qiang

We worked in groups of six, and resarched out artists first. Three people researched Cai Guo Qiang and three of us researched Henri Matisse.

This is my Research summary sheet for Matisse:


Here are some photographs of our two models
on the catwalk!!
