The aim of this project is to communicate information about the collection of some items to certain audience. The project should be implemented by choosing owned collection or items from UAL archives. The information should be obtained from the subject and then should be compared, linked and displayed. It is also important to show the enthusiasm for the selected collection as well as the information about the object that is gained in the process.

Brief

5. The main reason I have collected wine
corks was the feeling that they give me.
They have wonderful texture, design,
smell and colour of wine..
Firstly, I have done some research about
corks such as how it is being made, why
they use cork for wine and why they print
their brand on it?
I have visited a wine factory to ask them
every thing that I needed.
There were some questions about what
would be interesting for my audience
about corks?
- The design and the font they have used.
- The texture of the corks
-The colour of wine on it
- The codes. I am curious to know what
are the codes that labeled on the corks.
The codes on the corks show the quality
of wine. Corks are made by the skin of
the tree and it makes a better smell for
the wine.

6. By looking at these corks we will usually
find out about the year that wine is
produced, locations, companies and
quality of corks.
Another way of looking at it is its design
and branding, texture, type of wood
used, colour of the wine such as Red,
Rose, White and etc.

9. Feedbacks,
- I like the way you focused on corks. I
can see the texture, colure and designs.
- You can perhaps scan them to actually
open the whole design on the corks.

10. Opening design and data on the corks
by scanning them. Looking at the design
and branding on corks.
- I have also tried to do some printing
by using corks and different colours of
wine to see if it is possible to get a great
texture out of it.

11. IDEAS
First idea
During the interviews
from different art
students at LCC, I have
found out that most of
them like to focus on
corks. Something like
using magnifier to look
at the details of it.
Thus, I think the best
way of looking at
corks collection is to
make the corks bigger
on a big screen and
allowing the audience
to spin it around by
touching. Audience
can look at the design,
font, texture and
also the colour of the
wine. Moreover, the
audience can look at
the collection in better
way.

12. Second idea
Scanning the cork and opening the logo
and information on the cork to look at it
clearly. Then, making an installation. This
Installation will show the collection and
design of them. On the back of each,
the information such as which year it is
produced, where it is from and the code
information will be written.

13. Feedbacks & improving the idea
The idea of making the corks bigger is
very interesting because you want the
audience to look at the design, texture
and colour of wine on them.
Maria and Josh, GMD lecturers: You may
not need to write the information of the
corks on the wall. There is no need. Think
about the design of how the corks will
look like in the exhibition.
After testing different designs for my
exhibition. I have decided to having walls
in the middle of th exhibition. Which you
can find the final one on the last page.

14. By using the 3D Scanner and 123D
Catch app, I have done some 3D
scanning of the corks for the exhibition.

15. Designing posters by using photo of
Corks and coloures of different wines.

16. By scanning the corks, I have designed a
supporting publication for the exhibition.
Firstly, I have designed the booklet
to show the design of the corks. The
second idea was to make some cards
with cork materials where the design of
the cork is printed on them. For each
3d scanned cork, there will be some of
these cards. The audience can make
their own collection of the cards that
they like and put them in the box that is
given to them. Inside the box there is the
general guidance about the cards which
include the relevant data about the corks
that they have collected.
