Plaster Exploration

30/12/15

Over the exploration of the theme of Matemorphosis, I have done a lot of development using plaster and paint. Over the time of the project, I decided to take my hidden communication idea towards colour association, and so had chosen specific colours that I knew conveyed different emotions, while other people would just see them as colours. 

As well as developing my colour association idea, I had began to make numerous different plaster 'lumps', which I made using left over plaster from other experiments. These plaster pieces then became essential to my idea development when I started experimenting with videos as well.

Using the plaster pieces, I started to apply different colours to see how the paint would interact with the different textures that each different plaster piece held. I dripped the paint on at the beginning of the experiments, but then moved on to pouring the paint, as it seemed to mix better and created some very unusual colours, which I then took into my final piece idea.
