Unigirl sculpture
She started out as one of two small doodles with fluro gel pens and water colour paints at a friends house one day, when I was thinking about writing a little illustrated childrens style story or comic to try to convey the feelings of confusion and distress involving an identity crisis and dealing with being bullied and challenged.
Over time she then she evolved to this... I worked on her for months and I'm very proud of her. First I sculpted her out of clay on a metal armature then I made a mould of the clay head with silicone and plaster, which I used to slush cast polyurethane resin and then, sanded, cleaned up, painted and everything. I worked so hard I feel like I gave birth to her, and all my creations feel like my children, hehe. She seemed to be everyones favourite at my exhibition. I tried to make her goofy and cute but still kind of strong and wise, sure of herself, like she is truly her true self. She meant to be magical and awe inspiring..
