The cello player : a sculpture in Magnesite

<p>This paper is not to be considered as the main project for the master's thesis, but rather as an accompaniment to the mail project, which is a piece of sculpture entitled, The Cello Player. The paper will briefly discuss what sculpture is, together with a general overview of the materials and methods employed in the creation of a sculptural piece. In the paper an attempt will be made to explain why and how The Cello Player was created. It will also consider the technical and working aspects of a new material, Magnesite. Lastly, it will evaluate the use of Magnesite as sculptural material. </p><p>It is hoped that this paper will be of some future use to anyone wishing to do a piece of sculpture by the modeling method, or anyone interested in experimenting with a comparatively new sculptural material.</p>
