3D 2011 Fall project

For this project we had to choose an object from memory using felt as our material.
Immediately I thought of my favorite children's book Hershel and the Hanukkah Goblins. In one scene Hershel is about the light the Hanukkah candles when a repulsive goblin walks in. Hershel tells him that before he destroys the candles he should help himself to a pickle. Little does the goblin know that it was all a trick and he ends up getting his hand stuck in the pickle jar. I wanted to create that so I made a rendition of the goblin hand using the thick felt given and hand sewing the whole thing. It is an interactive piece, where the hand fits on like an over sized glove.
