There! My first public sculpture! Ok ok.... i meant, my first group public sculpture. Hehe! All for the good cause of creating awareness in breast cancer, in regards to the Breast Cancer Awareness Month 2008. Collaborating with KK Women's and Children's hospital, 8 of us girls from Level 1 and 2 Sculpture under the supervision of our lecturer casted 6 breast cancer survivors using aljunid (the moulding material they use in dental clinics) and plaster bandage. These ladies were really really brave to bare their chest (breasts) in front of so many girls and let us 'touch' them. Haha. Not that we really had a choice. I mean, we needed to do the casting!! We needed to put the materials on them so that we get the shape and details of their scars, reconstructions and so on. And no, we weren't sued for molestation:P

So for a few weeks after castings done, we strengthened the plaster bandage casts with plaster of paris and epoxy resin. Then spraying it with colour to represent the different races. We didn't have a big budget, nor much time... nor were we paid. But! That's all okay:) This is an experience and... a good look for CV. Heheheee ;)
