After making numerous moulds, boxes and supports it was time to cast the resin slates. I poured on half the resin mix into the rubber mould, left it for 30 minutes until it became a jelly texture, then sprinkled the sediments, from square 1 - 4 in rows across the square.
My aim is to have 9 clear resin squares, all 500 x 500mm. Each one will represent the sites I visited through a trapped 'soil horizon'. It will almost be a time trap of the earth in March that was picked up and placed in June. Each slate will be displayed on the floor, slightly hovering on the surface, to show the audience the view point I was looking at for a week.
