I decided that to bring more of the red and blue into the composition, I could use red and blue transparent film, a medium similar to acetate.
I continued to focus my work in the centre of the canvas, with the intention of maybe expanding it. I began with producing the combination of unusual materials separate from the canvas, inside part of a coke cola plastic bottle. I filled the interior with photography, in hope that it would be visible from the exterior through the plastic. From the outcome this wasn't achieved. However, might have if I hadn't worked around the exterior of the bottle. I then applied more parts of plastic bottle cut outs as well as a can parts.
I fixed this composition to the canvas using metal wire again, because its so far been reliable and easy to work with. Afterwards, I applied the transparent coloured film around the outside because it was transparent leaving visible everything inside of it. However, after applying heat with the heat gun, the material started to burn quickly. Consequently, this led to the once transparent material to become dark and no longer transparent.
Furthermore, the colours were lost.
I tried improving the piece, by applying red and blue ink around the collection in a expressive abstract way. The disappoint from the transparent film, led to aggressive application of ink.
The transparent coloured film is the same material that is used within 3D glasses at cinemas, so that's the reason why I made the choice of using it within an experiment.
