INTRODUCTION FOR THE PLASTER PROJECT

Title: Gnawing Apprehension

Size: 12″ x 17 1/2″ x 13″

Material: Plaster

The emotion of dread makes a person feel like they’re being twisted into knots by fear and stress. It wraps itself around your thoughts and tightens its grip until you can’t escape it. It pierces your mind and makes you crumple up with anxiety. This gnawing sense of apprehension is what I tried to capture in the curves and spikes of my sculpture.
