Live Sculpture Project - Specific Substrate Help
Posted: Sat Apr 19, 2014 1:38 am
This is my first post on this great forum!
Hi guys, I'm working on a sculpture project and need to know of a substrate/growing material that can be put in a mould and hardened (or something of the like) and be taken out of the mould so that the material will hold in place and keep it's structure. The thinnest parts of the sculpture would be roughly 2cms in circumference (if not possible the next thinnest would be a big step up to about 15cms in circumference). The substrate needs to be able to take significant growth changes to it from the growth before falling apart or not falling apart at all. Does such a material exist? I'm pretty ignorant on the subject. I have made a vermiculite and brow rice powder substrate before but that's about. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!
