The casting work in this section was done with the help of the three Paomees women. The family had suffered a terrible loss that year so to keep the children busy they were invited to the studio every weekend to make art.  By the end they were professional muses/ models and even studio assistants.

Four year old Katrin's tiny cast became the press-mold for the three ceramic works on the left. (see Eva and Katrin below). The larger wall mounted works on the right were direct body-casts covered with paper-pulp and surrounded by neon.
