Conceptual work with styrofoam cups

Here we are experimenting deforming a generic styrofoam cup using acetone.
The results of this experimentation:



















After this experimentation it has become apparent that not much more can come from the relationship of styrofoam and acetone so we have decided to move onto other materials we have been working with - wool, thread and resin...
Thread hardened in resin - this makes the thread a self supporting structure.


We will be experimenting with knitting wool and hardening it in resin.
