I've been busy with one of my modules: 'Architecture Construction'; for which we had to make a concrete sculpture. Here's what we did:

We poured the concrete into this wooden framework. And left it to dry for 4 days.

The framework was lined with cling-wrap and duct tape to 'engrave' the texture onto our concrete surface. So after the four days we pried the wood planks apart.

We had blue foam as the interior framework to have the inner hollows rotating as well.

We had to dig the foam out. (I'm obviously faking it in this picture)

My group looking really cheerful at 3 a.m.

And... Finally our baby is born!!!

Concept: 3 seemingly distinct cubes stacked on top of one another but they are in fact created by using one singular framework and one pour of concrete. The 3 cubes rotate anti-clockwise and the inner hollow of the three cubes rotate clockwise. Also the textures of the 3 cubes vary with the density of duct tape taped onto the framework. In addition to that, we used grout to stain the concrete a homogeneous black.
