In preparation for my final piece I experimented with clay and plaster to get used to the materials and the forms that would be possible. Pictured above is an example of what I came up with; a small sculpture inspired by my Gorillapod.
I have also included my first attempt at plaster sculpting; a simple form with smoothed surfaces and a crease. Also pictured is an idea for a sculptural piece (the end of a banana) inspired by my earlier observations of cocoa beans.
I discovered that using this 'hands on' approach gave me a good feel for the materials and helped to create organic forms.
