I started to make the molds on Friday, and it was a very busy weekend. In the beginning I had to figure out how to transfer the sketches into three-dimensional forms and at the same time have the forms relating to eatch other in way that they would still have a uniform sense, so it took few molds to practise that. I have never managed to draw my ideas in a way that I could be content on the result, they need to exist as concrete objects that I can understand them and see and feel how they work.
The tile size is now 16,5 x 16,5 cm. The earhenware has a shrinkage percentage around 7 after firing, so you all can do the math.
Luckily on Monday I got wonderful Ance Ausmane to help me with the project! It is starting to feel like the goal is possible to achieve here..
Still four to go but I think they all will be done tomorrow.
Here are the ready ones drying in the sun, and it´s looking good.
