Class Details
Bronze Casting This course is designed to introduce the fundamental principles of foundry processes as they relate to sculpture. We will build upon the basic principles of mold making and casting while exploring more complex concepts and techniques. Processes will include lost wax, silicone rubber, patina, metal finishing, aluminum and bronze casting. We will review the possible health hazards associated with casting, and learn safe working methods, as well as have in-class discussions about concept and craft, various fabrication and finishing methods, and uses for molds in the making of sculpture.
