Studio spaces + textures
















(Word: Integral, Upperlevel Studio, Textures applied: 'Rigid' to flat surfaces, 'Fluid' to curved surfaces)

I would imagine that Rosaline Gascoigne's studio would look something like the pictures I have taken. This is the top level and as you can see from the exterior the building has cube like structures that protrude from the surface, one could imagine this could have inspired Gascoigne's artwork Rocky Road II. The bay windows are large and as the rooms are up high they look down over the surrounding environment. I purposefully chose this as I would have imagined nature to have been a major influence as organic objects are ofter her subject matter. The windows over look the mountainous landscape highlighting the uneven jagged peaks. These natural elements would have inspired Gascoigne's artwork. In some ways the different lengths of wood protruding in different angles represent the mountains. When you look at the last two pictures one notices the artwork in one room and in the next room on the far wall there is another pattern of different shaped rectangles and squares with the face made out of wooden timber that protrude from the main wall. The floors are wooden and the colour scheme on the inside are rigid lines (Texture:Sharp). All these elements could have been inspirational for Gascoigne and her artwork.
