Initial Concept Statement: Slipcasting is a departure from my rigid woodworking background; through my exploration of the process I discovered how adaptable the designs that are created through this process could be. I’m going to explore the idea of highlighting faults in the cast as the main design feature of an item. Lighting products , vases, and shakers are currently being considered, however, I’d like to look into incorporating this process into furniture; though the fragility of the material is a cause for concern.
