Sculpture & Mould Making with Kassandra Bossell

When

Sundays, 10am to 1pm Sunday 9 March to Sunday 6 April

5 Week Course

Explore the materials and techniques that sculpture can encompass such as modelling, carving, assemblage and abstraction. Each term, students can work with clay, timber, plaster, stone, paper mache, silicon, latex, plasticine, concrete and wire depending on their interests.

Learn clay techniques such as modelling, carving and hand building. Hollow out your finished sculpture for kiln firing or leave it solid for mould making and multiples. Moulds can be made of plaster, latex or silicon and cast up in many different substances including various plasters, concrete, paper mache and wax. Everyone works on their own projects at their own pace.

Participants are encouraged to bring along their own creative projects so that tutor Kassandra can support, extend and help realise each student’s ideas and individual interests. Each term students work independently under tutor guidance and can be guided through modelling, carving and mould making projects.

In the first class, students can discuss their project and develop a plan of materials with Kassandra. Students may benefit by initially developing ideas, drawings or a maquette of their ideas before committing to materials.

Tutor Kassandra Bossell makes sculpture for visual, community and performing arts. Her artwork focuses on human relationships within nature, processes of transformation, and interdependent connectivity. She has has always enjoyed teaching alongside her practice and professional activities.
