Plaster Tests
Tests to get to know plaster.
— Combining plaster and paper together. Hardening pages of The Catcher in the Rye by submerging them in wet plaster, forming them, and then letting them dry in place. The pages take on a fragile, dusty quality. You can no longer turn them, they are stuck.
— Forming plaster around balloons to get curved, cupped forms.
— Single drops of ink dropped into wet plaster. The ink spreads out on the watery surface, and then dries in place as the plaster sets.
