Creating creative sculptures from plaster for bronze casting

Meezen, Germany

Summary

In this workshop, we want to translate our own artistic ideas into three-dimensional forms - from the first sketch to the finished sculpture.
To begin with, we will approach our sculpture in a playful way using drawings or small clay models. As soon as the idea takes shape, we use reinforcing steel to build a supporting skeleton. We then use plaster, an exciting and versatile material, to form our individual sculpture. Plaster can be cast in a soft state and modeled freely. After hardening, it opens up further possibilities: cutting, milling, grinding or carving. Each process reveals new structures and surfaces.
We will be accompanied by the artist Michael Jastram, who will use his many years of experience to provide inspiration, clarify technical questions and support the artistic development of each individual.
At the end of the workshop you will have a unique finished sculpture. If you are interested, you can have it molded and cast in a bronze foundry.
Additional material costs: 50 € per person.
