Naum Gabo. Is an interesting idea, his flat plains to create 3D sculpture in the human form creates something that is organic yet some how detached from living tissue. the shapes are reminiscent... for me, of cityscapes and technology. A Deus Ex concoction  which i like.

However i have some bad news. The plaster molds have broken. This SUCKS because i spent hours on the stuff and now it is essentially useless as it is. I may have to break it up and find another use for it. Its a great shame because i loved the concept behind it. Frankly the experiment worked far better in Styrofoam than it did in plaster.

 The idea was to fill this with plaster, produce a mold, remove the Styrofoam slats and then fill the holes with new materials. But it didn't work out that way.

 

This is something i had hoped to recreate using Plaster. Its a first, I've never used the material before and because of that i poured the plaster to thin and with too much water. it was like chalk.


But lesson learnt i suppose, try try again and all that.
