Manic Woman


The Sculpture of the Manic women was made out of a discarded polystyrene head, wire mesh, mod rock, and rope. I started by cutting the neck of the discarded head and re-shaping it with mod rock to enable it to look as though the model has tilted their head back, then using the mod rock I shaped the facial features. I wrapped the wire around my own arm and hand to get an idea of the shape and size and then again used the mod rock to build it up. For the hair I pulled apart the strands of a rope and glued them on a little bit at a time. this was made to show intense emotions, i wanted her to look in pain, sad or frightened however on the side it gives off a look that it might be more erotic more then anything.
