Gasp Kit posting non digital art. How new :3

These are some kitties I made to sell at a market in my town :3. Very proud of them. Sadly big kitty mold is very bad at casting. The blanket kept breaking and ears snapping off. So only made one big guy.(Which is the og clay one. The other guys are plaster) Little guys came out the best :3

The death mask of Napoleon Bonaparte (1769-1821 CE) was taken at St. Helena, created from a plaster cast of his face.

Before the invention of photography, it was common practice to make plaster or wax casts of the faces of famous people after they had died.

Mask was created 40 hours after (7 May 1821) his death on 5 May 1821, imprisoned on the island of St Helena at the age of 51.

After his defeat at Waterloo in 1815, Napoleon had been exiled to St. Helena, a tiny island in the South Atlantic.

Here, British, German, Austrian, Russian, and Spanish allies hoped to keep the former emperor from ever threatening European peace again.

There is controversy over who made the original cast of Napoleon’s features (7 May 1821).

Some believe that it was Napoleon’s own doctor, Francois Carlo Antommarchi, while others say it was an army surgeon called Francis Burton.

Probably more than one cast was made, as four original casts are said to exist today.

In any event, numerous copies in bronze and marble appeared on the market as soon as the original casts reached Paris.

In the death mask above, Napoleon looks serene and youthful.

However, in reality, he had been suffering terrible ill health and pain in the last months of his life and looked emaciated and prematurely old.

Since arriving at St. Helena at the end of 1815, he had led a miserable and frustrating existence.

Longwood House, where he lived with his staff, was damp, unhealthy and infested with vermin.

He spent his time dictating his memoirs, playing cards and taking long baths.

He detested the governor, Sir Hudson Lowe, who was afraid that he might escape and constrained him with petty rules and wrangles.

The cause of Napoleon’s death has been hotly debated for years but the fact is that the English doctors and Antommarchi, who did the autopsy, found widespread stomach cancer.

Further contention surrounded his burial in a glade on the island. Lowe and Napoleon’s attendants could not agree on the wording of the headstone, so it was left blank.

Despite his obscure end, the Napoleonic legend lived on in France.

Finally, in 1840, the ex-emperor got the send-off he craved. His remains were removed from St. Helena and given a magnificent state funeral in Paris.

Thousands lined the route of the cortege to Les Invalides where he was reburied in an elaborate sarcophagus with detailed inscriptions of his triumphs.

Project: Disrupt, Week 5, Friday (10/11/2023)

I got started on my 2nd idea and got started on making plaster molds of my hands. This morning I went on a man hunt to try find Mike Fox to see if my idea was plausible and how I'd cut the plaster models for every frame. He explained to me that I could use a sort of cheese grater tool (?) and shave away a bit every frame. I was then set up with Chris the technician who taught me how to make plaster casts in the workshop area.

First I had to make a leak proof container for where I would the alginate, Chris showed me how to do this by rolling and taping a piece of card paper and hot gluing the bottom of it to a board.

We then poured the alginate into the tube and I stuck my hand in, in the desired pose. As you can see, I'm over flowing with joy, loving the texture of the alginate on my hand, and the experience of sitting on the floor on my old man knees for 5 minutes ( better than squatting). I had a bit of trouble keeping my hand in the same position as I kept unconsciously lifting my hand upwards, so I had to keep readjusting myself , it thankfully didn't interfere with the end result.

I had to wriggle my way out of the alginate, it was a moist experience, and my left hand smelt strongly of mint. Afterwards Chris taught me how to mix plaster, basically you fill the mold full with water and pour that into a bucket , and slowly go adding plaster powder in until it starts equally pilling up on the surface. You give it a little mix and squash all the clumps and pour it into the mold. I let it set for 50 minutes ( you should let plaster set for 45-60 minutes so that it hardens and isn't affected by the alginate, they both dry at different rates.) and came back to start peeling away at it. I had to slowly chip away at the alginate to locate the plaster without damaging it.

Here is the final result. I think it looks cool and I'm happy with how it turned out. The only issue is that there's these little bubbles the palms of the hand, I think it was caused by me moving during the initial alginate mold but it doesn't really affect my project so I'll let it slide. Now I just need to repeat this process about 5 more times, maybe 6. Those technicians are gonna be sick of looking at me by the time this is done.

Plaster workshop

7/11/2022

My goal for the workshop was to cast my hand for my project. We started by measuring out our hands and making a paper cylinder.

We then hot-glued the base of the cylinder so that the alginate would not leak.
