Mouldmaking is a struggle :P

It was supposed to take me a day maybe two... a week later I am still starting each day with the thought 'I'll have my mould ready today'. It turns out to be very time consuming and quite stressful procedure but I am happy to finally see the results- I don't have my moulds ready yet but the models are finished, at least some of them :) Hope you will enjoy them as much as I do :) They will be giant wall tiles (about 50x50 cm) I was planning to make lights but have just 4 weeks left before assessments and  using porcelain can be very tricky so I will probably have to change my plan and use stoneware instead. Will make lights next year I promise! I love them already :)

Rough clay models

I needed to decide what is my main interest in this project so I did some rough clay work to see if I am more attracted to the messy side of it or to the straight and sharp one. I was cutting into wet blocks of clay to create the distortion. Here are the results: I decided that I would like to work with very precise objects this time but I still  find the tests quite interesting.

Cracked- Ceramics Exhibition

Woohoo :) We had our first exhibition last week :) It was exciting. I didn't manage to produce any ceramics for it but well... you could see my sketchbook and paper models :) I am just starting my clay work now - was off for work experience for a week. Anyway here are some photos from the exhibition, enjoy :) My work Martyna Wysocka's work Nicola Dunne's and Kate Stoica's works. Aidan Power's stand. My business cards :)
