OBJECT AND SKIN

The difficulty of the chosen object was truly seen during this workshop, as it was incredibly hard to mimic the contours, shape and form of the human hand. Although the larger features of the hand such as the knuckles and wrist were able to be reproduced, the more intricate movements and details of the object, proved to be extremely hard to fabricate, especially due to the limited and small scale of sheet metal.
