Produce a 1- or 2-part mold of a chosen object (maximum 15 cm in one direction). Learn to find the dividing line, build up clay walls around your object, and mix & pour plaster. Basic principles of slip-casting are explained. After this session you will have a finished plaster mold which will need to dry for at least one week before it can be used with wet clay. To continue to the slip-casting process, an additional slip-casting session or independent work in the studio is required.
