Kev H Final Project

For my final project I am working with plaster. The 3 experiments I am doing will focus on how the plaster breaks down and attaches to other plaster parts after hardening, and how different shapes are made and what surface detail it can pick up.

For the first experiment I am going to carve out the plaster to see how it breaks apart after drying, and see what kinds of patterns or textures i can apply to it after hardening. For the second experiment, I am going to find out how to attach 2 dried pieces of plaster together, using wet plaster as the glue solution. Finally, i will find out how much surface detail plaster picks up from a mold and other materials.

Materials I will need:
-plywood/mdf
-plaster mix
-water
-carving tools
-bucket for mixing
-rubber for mold
