Icons and Archetypes

Drawing from icons and archetypal forms from each students culture, piece rethought contours, pattern, and details to arrive at a contemporary updated version with conceptual underpinnings. All works were made by creating high density foam forms or 3D prints, making plaster molds, and slip casting porcelain before firing.
