Drawing a Breath

For the breath project, I wanted to show the cycling aspect of breath through the human body. Breath is can seem simple and short, but it is important to the entire body, cycling throughout it to give life. It cannot be contained, moving in and out of objects. I thought wire was suitable, even though it is not a typical drawing tool, it showed form yet was still hollow. This first photo is a outline tracing of a friend's body and was what I referenced in my wire model. However, I was confused with my proposal in the aspect of what I was basing my wire figure on. I did not follow the contour lines I had made with the tracing. Instead I was focusing on the cycling of the breath through the body and making the wire hold a body form. Although my figure did not fulfill what I had proposed, I still think that it still kept to the main point of the project where one thing moves to another, as does a breath.
