In this workshop, you will learn about sustainable, biobased alternatives to traditional mold-making materials. Live demos will show how to craft BioMolds, and material samples will exhibit a range of casting materials, including natural wax, glass frit, latex, and more. These biodegradable, food safe BioMolds are accessible, affordable, earth-friendly, and edible. You will learn how to incorporate digital workflows into casting processes. And you will make your own, edible chocolate cast!
Hosted in collaboration with Paige L Morris' Art Mold-Making Technologies course and Laurin Aman's Architecture Bio-Prototyping course alongside Laurie Wagman Visiting Artist Catie Newell.
