SUMMARY:Cast Iron Art: Lost Foam Design Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a unique opportunity to make your own incredibly de
 tailed cast iron art using the lost foam casting method! Learn creative te
 chniques for how to build\, sculpt\, press\, cut and burn your way to a ra
 dically unique model that will become a cast iron sculpture.\n\nArtist Ali
 sa Toninato from FeLion Studios will guide participants through additive a
 nd subtractive approaches to sculpting during the design and model-making 
 process in order to get a 3D form. We’ll be cutting and gluing polystyre
 ne &amp\; white bead foam using hot wires\, wood burners and glue sticks i
 n order to generate a unique sculptural form. Once your foam sculpture is 
 complete\, FeLion Studios will create a sand mold around your design in pr
 eparation for the artwork to be cast into iron at a big annual iron pour e
 vent called “Pour’n Yer Heart Out”\, happening on February 19th\, 20
 22 at Olbrich Botanical Gardens.\n\nFor inspiration: I encourage students 
 to bring photos\, objects\, and examples of textures that they may want to
  replicate in the foam design process. There will be a variety of tools\, 
 textures and objects available to use during this workshop\, but if you ar
 e interested in using a specific texture you like as a tool to “press”
  or “smash” into the foam\, consider bringing something that is rigid 
 enough and tougher than the foam itself. Polystyrene foam has some memory 
 attributes to it\, but it's still pretty dense material\, so you'll need s
 omething made from metal or very strong plastic.\n\nHeads up: Since we wil
 l be working with hot foam cutting for some of the sculpting methods\, it 
 can get a little stinky after a while\, so we’ll do our best to provide 
 a space with ventilation and good air flow. If you are sensitive to these 
 smells\, you are welcome to wear a respirator with organic filtration duri
 ng those times.\n\nAll supplies are provided.\n\nAges 16 and up.
