V&A museum visit





The materials and processes section at the V&A allowed me insight into a variety of sculpting and casting figures methods. Here I watched two short films on how a bronze figure and clay piece were made for display pieces. Common materials featured wax, terracotta and clay for sculpting an original piece to then be re-produced in bronze, marble or stone depending on the value and prestige attached the the object. .
