Problem Solving:I approached this piece like I typically do with these plaster bowls. I kind of go in with a limited plan in mind. I knew generally that I wanted this bowl to have more of a seamless feel to it so I let it shape organically in the balloon. Once I filled it with plaster, I pushed in another balloon and filled with up with water. This was a piece that I just kind of cranked out without a whole lot of planning so it was in a way a nice surprise.
Cultural & Connections:
This piece ties in with the rest of my concentration easily because I think this is kind of what you would conventionally think of when you hear "plaster bowls". This may not be the most creative of them all but I mean I think it is a strong enough piece. I think it also ties in with the rest of the concentration nicely because it also continues the continuity of the fragile edges which I think are actually pretty nice and add good texture. What I like about this one in particular is if you look really closely, you can see that there are some tiny holes at the top. I think that makes this piece just a bit more interested and creates its own identity.
