second repair or how a secondary object becomes primary











In the first repair I used the plastic shards of window to form the objects that were defined by the primary subject.





Here I decided to make the plastic pieces the primary.





the plastic pieces were origanaly parts of a window. what is a window? what is the purpose of a window? a window is there to protect from the elements, the weather. it blocks wind and rain.










So what can I make that uses the same idea? in class a number of students repaired umbrellas which is an object to protect from rain.










An Umbrella in addition to pieces of plastic window I have collected bottles.





so what is a bottle? a bottle contains and confines what it has inside.





so I used a bottle as a base to confine the shards of plastic and make an umbrella.










the next step is taking pieces of the plastic to attach. and put together starting with the large one and moving on to the smaller ones, because every piece of plastic is something to use and reuse.
