Last winter I took mold making in which I made this cliff-like, rock-like, angular object. I enjoyed the process of mold making, the mistakes that are bound to happen, the forgotten keyholes, the misplaced parting lines, the undercuts that trap your piece, but I also loved the opportunity to make multiples. To have a mold in which you can alter the original form every time, if you so wish. The possibilites seem endless. So I began to think how I could create a new form from an original as well as incorporating the process of mold making into one project. I started manipulating my mold, deliberately using leaks to create a new shape, and seeing what I could do without breaking or adding to the mold itself.
