FOS”CELL“ISED

For this sculptural project, I will sculpt and cast a collection of stylised cells out of plaster, using a silicone-based mould as well as brush-and-pour techniques to create a unique assemblage that represents my themes of materiality, identity and the intensity of nature.

Fos“cell”ised is a love letter to the magnetic connection between us and the building blocks of what makes us the living breathing and perceiving animals we are today. Staring into the chunky pale bones of a collection of cells like a morbid exhibit at a natural history museum, we are reminded of what we were, currently are and continue to be.
