Plaster, gouache

This piece was part of my MA show. Working with the tension between tending to a body and violating a body, I first carefully poured, then cut several layers of plaster to form a sculpture that is both beautiful visually and somewhat reminiscent of a broken human body. Understanding the behavior inherent to plaster and interrupting that behavior was part of my strategy to convey subliminal feelings of care and violence.
