Paper casting day
Atelier Mitte, Berlin.
Saturday, 09 December 2023.
11.00 - 16.00
Welcome to The Paper Lab by Guy Lougashi, where we explore the art of creating three-dimensional paper reliefs and cast objects using paper as the primary material.
In this online workshop, we'll take a deep dive into the craft of 3D paper making and paper casting, exploring the limitless potential of this fascinating art form.
We'll delve into the intricacies of mold-making, learning various methods that can be used to create unique and interesting designs. You'll learn how to create molds that can be used repeatedly, allowing you to create multiple copies of your paper cast objects.

In addition to mold-making, we'll also delve into the process of making the perfect blend of paper material. We'll cover the optimal ratio of water to paper, and how to achieve the right consistency and texture for your paper. We'll experiment with different materials and additives, both natural and recycled, to create unique textures and finishes.
Join us in this exciting and rewarding experience of 3D paper making and paper casting. Lets unleash our creativity and explore the endless possibilities of this amazing medium.
The workshop is structured as follows: we'll provide a theoretical introduction that explains the method.
Next, we'll cover the principles and various options for making the mold. We'll then demonstrate how to prepare the paper pulp and pour it into the template, and discuss the application, casting, and drying processes.
Explore the mesmerizing craft of paper casting, where ordinary sheets of paper evolve into intricate 3D sculptures. This workshop is thoughtfully crafted for both beginners and seasoned artists.
