Raw Mats - Fall 2008 - Carlo Sammarco - NYSCC @ Alfred UniversityFrom these results I chose my favorite of the three and did further research on how to build with them.I decided to work with recipe A because I really liked the jagged edge results. I made two 500 gramsamples, one with copper carbonate and one without. With each sample I varied ways of building. Iwanted to see how sturdy they would be when built, how much each piece would slump, if both sides ofpaper had to be painted in order for shape to be maintained, how different types of paper changed resultsand how they looked when layered.The following objects were made with the copper carbonate recipe, using specific techniques as describebelow...Paper Mache on round balloon (using tissuepaper covering entire balloon up to an inchbefore tie off)Detail of image on left.Larger piece of drawing paper oneside coated wrapped into a loopSmall piece of paperwrapped into loop withboth sides coated (usingnewsprint)55
