3-D Papermaking: Relief Papercasting

Learn the art of papercasting from Tom Balbo, the Morgan’s Artistic Director and one of the most revered paper artists in the country. Tom has developed a process in which everyday objects are placed on a vacuum table to create a composition, pigmented pulp is poured on top and the vacuum table is utilized to remove the water from the pulp to form the cast. The final results are low-relief, cast paper panels comprised of a variety of textures, shapes and colors.
