Abstract

The primary objective of this creative project was to fully explore and analyze the centuries old technique of lost wax casting.The secondary objective was to produce a body of work combining my creative inspirations from nature and my African culture.This body of work employed a variety of traditional metalsmithing techniques combining raised/constructed hollow ware, in a variety of metals, with cast metal forms.
