Paul incorporates traditional modelling techniques alongside digital processes within his practice. His work attempts to recapture the playful creativity of childhood but is often haunted by nostalgic nightmares and digital ghosts. In this session you will have the opportunity to experience some of the techniques Paul uses, including AI image generation, Plasticine modelling, moulding and casting, and 3D scanning.
