In this course, we will be creating a fun lady sculpture, inspired by the iconic Niki de Saint Phalle nana sculptures. Niki de Saint Phalle was a French sculptor and painter known for her colourful and whimsical sculptures of women. Her Nanas, in particular, are playful and joyful representations of the female form.
You will learn how to make a sculpture modelled in papier mache (paper strips and paper clay). Papier mache is a versatile and affordable medium, as well as being eco-friendly. A great way to upcycle your rubbish and help the planet.
The course guides you step by step in the creation of a structure, the volumes and surface of the piece, to the final finer details.
Throughout the course, we will cover the very basics of papier mache, from creating a stand and an armature to mixing paste and applying layers of paper, followed by paper clay.
By the end of the course, you will have created your very own fun lady sculpture. This course is the perfect opportunity to explore the world of papier mache and be an eco-warrior at the same time.
So, grab your newspaper and paste and lets get started!
