Standing in the Shoes- Michelangelo



Carla Chavez

Making a sculpting out of soap wasn’t quite what I thought it was going to be. I went through about 4 “practice” bars of soap before I finally came up with the sculpture I submitted. I chose to go with an abstract piece because I sort of just wanted to see where it would end up if I just kind of went with the flow. It was interesting seeing how I would try and make one shape or design and it would look like something else. It made me see how difficult it must have been to sculpt with real marble or clay. I can only imagine the time and dedication that it took the artists to create their masterpieces.
