Pig Installation Piece




 



One of my 3D projects was to create slip casts of an object out of a two part plaster mold and set up the casts in a space to either create a new space or tell a narrative. For my set ups I tried to make these cute pigs seem sinister and cult-like. I had originally wanted to play around with the idea of recycling (thus the first picture) but as I was painting them before I put pupils in their eyes they just look ghost-like and downright creepy which led to these militant-like setups.

I painted the pigs in 3 different shades of pink, put corks in the sprue where the nose was and painted the imprint from the tape I had on my original object purple to make them all look like part of a group or cult.
