From looking at our mind map an element we wanted to experiment with was temporary and periminance. Plastering a garment is like freezing it in time. We are preventing it from disitigrating. An artist that we heared about in a talk does this is Auror Thiout. Grace and I plastered some vintage/charity shop piece such as shirts and socks to see what it would look like. We tried the plaster in two session and the second one was more successful because we knew how to mix the plaster so it was just right. Here our some images Grace took, they are very errie, i like the effect the plaster had on the garments it ages them and made them seem really fragile.
