With the data I found online to fo with the tiop three cause of death in the UK and Wales, I want to link it in with my rose sculptures; with the 29% cancer, 28% circulatory diseases and 15% due to respiratory diseases. So the largest rose sculpture will represent the deaths due to cancer, the median will represent the circulatory diseases and the smallest will resemble the respiratory diseases.
I'm using the material of cardboard as I like the idea of reusing materials and making them into something else; giving them new life. I like the way its visible how i've manipulated the cardboard with the creases and folds giving it life and character, and the fact I've used roses that are stuck in time show that they are perpetual - unwilling to accept death. Much like my audience.
