Description: This course explores the creation and use of molds from three-dimensional objects for reproduction. While primarily making plaster molds for use with slip-cast clay, students also explore rubber, urethane, and silicone molds for use in casting a variety of traditional and non-traditional materials, such as paper, silicone, soap, etc. This course explores the application of these techniques in professional ceramic production, by designers and in industry. The use of these techniques by contemporary artists for both technical and conceptual reasons is explored and discussed. This is an integrated media course.
