SNU. And this. I found a small bottle on my way to uni one day. And I made the silicone mould from it after lockdown. And cast a plaster and an epoxy resin bottle with a message inside (this is the trial run epoxy resin cast, the one that told me i need to put the message in upside down if the bottle is upside down). The second bottle came out quite perfect.

ASU2. SNU And the first glass in and out of its box and the extra slush wax casts ... the samples that didn't get made into bronze casts. And the glass that got broken during the mould making process leaving me with a shell (the mould) and the broken parts of itself that will no doubt get used and used again. For the time being i have not washed off the dirt from its journey to what it is now, i think it has a poetry all of its own.

SNU. Casts from a couple of the moulds that were most successful ... yes, even the plum stone has a story but i won't tell it here. I wanted to see how casting materials cast, time limited me to just epoxy resin, slush wax (not seen) which was burned out to make a bronze cast, herculite plaster and paraffin wax. I made five slush wax plum stones and put them on a tree made of slush wax sprue forms with no risers because they were small enough and solid enough to take the metal pouring in.
