The mould making workshop is designed to introduce the residents to the essential skills of moulding and casting. Residents can make rubber and plaster moulds for casting a range of materials such as plaster, wax, ceramics, resins and rubber. Exploring various mould making techniques, the workshop allows for a wide variety in outcomes of texture, volume and surface.
