Alright Annette? You're looking a bit peaky?

This is Annette:




She is made out of... well everything. Each part was constructed by a different group in the Graphic Design class. We assembled it together ensuring that each body part connected with wire or string. I believe this was a good activity because the next stage is making a website and constructing a working body allows us to see what connects together which could be possible links for the website.


My group made the spine, and although its not really that visible and no-one probably appreciated it but I think it worked out really well. I feel like no-0ne appreciated it because we don't in everyday life, its not the most important organ but it has a purpose, we wouldn't be able to be upright, walk or move our body. Maybe this should come across in our website? We want to make people understand that the spine is important and needs to be appreciated!


Here are some close ups of the spine we made using salt dough and acrylic paint with foam board discs, threaded through a thick wire:


The larger bones of the spine were made using salt dough and the round discs
in between were made using foam board.

To securely fasten the spine together, we used a piece of
foam board and a clip.
