Body Extension

For our second assignment in the welding studio we were given the project of creating a body extension. I instantly thought of wearable pieces and then quickly disregarding those in favor of creating a violin. I have been slowly learning the violin and each time I pick up to practice it becomes an extension of myself so that was my inspiration for this piece. Though it is to scale for a full size violin; it is unplayable as the strings (actual violin strings) are only attached by metal wire. I would love to make one that was playable, but a lot of research is needed before doing that.
