something about CLAY 1 (drawing)



  • open the package, the smell of the fresh clay like glue wet mud.
  • first touch is little bit sticky, wet, soft, dusty, fine, cold...



  • after roll it few times, the smell become a bit sour.
  • very easy to change the textures, structures, forms, shapes.

  • leave it in the air for a while, start crack and become hard.


  • can roll it to a line, do not use too much pressure otherwise it will break.


  • very easy to reunite and break down

     


  • press it on a paper, surprisingly traced wet mark, it means inside the clay contain liquid.


  • after several times press, it get very dry and thin.
  • cut it quite like chop the over night bum or eraser, not too sticky but distinct.


  • can't sculpt words properly when it still wet.


  • when the clay stick become dry, it gets very stick into went clay.


  • the pressure I used to squeeze the clay, is quite playful and interesting.

     

Also I'm thinking through different people squeeze the clay can trace their potency dimension and how their palms look like, record them is another thought...
