I found a new opportunity to make a mural.
It's so exciting. This is the place. The wall needs to be painted, but before making it simply white the owner of the house agreed to try my technique as an Art Idea.
Now I am in the process of agreeing on the colour and description of the idea with the client.
First draft
My test has been going on for more than six months and is beyond all expectations. The paper adheres to the canvas without much change in shape or colour.
Water accumulates in the folds but then dries without further destruction.
The reverse side of the canvas has begun to get mouldy, but I think in the summer at a temperature of 40 degrees in direct sun all this will dry out and die.
Nevertheless, I will test the method of assembling the finished work on the wall with other materials.
I still want to use materials for recycling. And since it's always something new and unpredictable, I need to invent new solutions. Here are some examples of possible solutions.
I can leave only the paper, but then I'm not sure about the stability, because the base that holds the paper is not there.
More real to me seem to be either a semblance of a plastic mesh or cardboard.
I also need to test the foam panels or install and fix the panels with foam. Since it will not be a homogeneous continuous mass, it will let air through.
The plan is to start installing outdoor work as soon as the first warm week appears and constant rains pass. Up to this point, I need to get approval about the colour concept and think (prepare) about the whole process and instruments, but I can already begin to create basic models for fixation.
