Brief > Research a specific subject within your museum and express a chosen concept in three dimensional form i.e a model. The model will be photographed under studio conditions and form the imagery for an A2 promotion poster. The poster should also feature an appropriate strapline and relevant secondary information.
This was a paired project so I worked with Rebecca Paul and we focused on a 1920's piece of equipment
called a 'chimney pig'. It was used in the Scottish Borders for clearing chocked chimney vents.
We decided to personify this and make an actual pig out of paper mâché which would become a character for the museum poster. We also made a rooftop and chimney using things like work tops and biscuit trays from the Tayside recycling centre.
The pig, fondly known as George, now sits between our desks in uni.
