E o último projeto da aula d cerâmica. Esse foi feito também com molde de gesso, só que de despejo, ou seja, vc põe a cerâmica líquida no molde e depois q seca uma camada grossinha, tira o excesso. E esse é de porcelana, não de argila que nem os outros que eu postei.

Pra trabalhar com essa idéia de repetição que o molde possibilita, eu pensei primeiro nos trabalhos do Escher, com a divisão regular do espaço, e pensei como poderia fazer algo do tipo no tridimensional. Então desenvolvi esse formato dos homenzinhos que se encaixam um nos outros e forcei uma curva - a idéia era formar um círculo completo, mas não deu tempo de fazer homenzinhos suficientes. Quem sabe um dia eu termino rsrs

And finally the last project from my ceramics classes. This one was also made using a plaster mold, but in this case I dropped liquid ceramic into it. I used porcelain on this, instead of the white clay I used on the others.

To work with the idea of repetition that the mold allow us to do, my first thought was on Escher artwork, so I imagined how to do something similar with sculpture. Then I developped this shape of little men that fit in one another and forced a curve - the ideia was to make a full circle, but I didn't have time to make little men enough. Maybe someday I'll finish it :lol:

homenzinhos by ~flakcs is inspired in Escher's divisions of space, and manages to articulate the repetition with simple and stylish ceramic figures that speak both of playfulness and great design. (Featured by `stigmatattoo)

What a fascinating sculpture--it certainly does bring Escher to mind! Great concept, and well executed.
