   TECHNICAL STATEMENT

   Folds of the reality.
   The reality is more believable than its representation
   By this reflexion and after several attempts, I found the way to stamp this smooth movement of folds who lies on a bed. Those prints of passion who contribute to emphasize the Passion of Eva.

   

         

1. On a foam rubber where I have cut previously the silhouette of an apple I place a plastic sheet.

  2.After that, I nest the fruit that stays pressed by the foam rubber and the plastic sheet, producing some natural way of folds.

3.I build the retaining walls and fix them together before preparing the plaster vessel.

  4.With a plaster a little bit liquid, I make the first registry of all the surfaces. When it gets harder, I repeat this action in successive layers letting it harden more between each layer; when obtaining an approximated thickness of 0.5 to 1 cm, I complete the box slowly with normal plaster to obtain about 3 to 4cm to have the resistance for this mold.

  

5-6.The mould was built in different parts to be able to open easily and to assemble for the cast

7.To the left, the cast for fired porcelain piece and its shrinkage (positive) and to the right, the mold( negative)

 

8.Electric firing to high temperature on alumina fiber, which also the silhouette of the apple has been cut and that serves like a support to avoid the deformation of the piece.

 

 

9.Installation in the studio the work of " The Passion of Eva", composed by a natural apple and 3 cast porcelain pieces in this mold of smooth folds passion

10.Details
   Porcelain slip casting in mold, transparent glaze painting, electric firing to 1280 ,polished after firing with diamond sponges.
