Bones.

Here we were given the task of recreating these small bones using various materials.

Firstly we made an armature of the bone using wire , we then used mod rock to fill in the space.

By doing this we are creating a proces which artists use to create a sculpture.

It was also a taste of trying to make our sculpture a copy of the bone , this required measuring, to do this we used a calliper (photographed below).

This makes an accurate representation of the object.

Overall this proved more difficulty than I was expecting , partially because of the small scale of the object and also the fact that I'm not the best at using wire.

However it was a great way to get into the flow of creating a sculpture and showing some techniques that we could use for our final peice.
