“Rush now, pay later” skateboard art

£1,200.00

While this piece may look good in the surface, half of my time was spent fixing errors, which you can see when you get close to the pattern.

For this work I wanted to try a different technique of pattern making where instead of cutting each small piece individually, I would cut strips with the same end shape.

This new method would in theory save me weeks of work, and sounded great at the time. However this method was quite inaccurate, and I ended up spending the time I saved filling in gaps and errors that showed as a result of rushing.

I hope the lesson this art piece teaches, is to take your time with life and the quality of it will improve. The same way I should have taken more time with this project.

Dimensions:

550mm width

410mm height

25mm depth
