niki de saint phalle

niki has been a massive influence to my work as she had a different perspective on how to create her sculptures. she shot them. polythene bags filled with pint and plaster human forms were the base of the sculptures, she then shot at the polythene bags to create an image on the plaster.
after the shoot paintings she then went in depth into different roles in which women take, making life-size dolls of women. example, brides and mother giving birth etc. made using mainly a wire frame and an overlay of plaster. painting them all white.
