The document describes Kailyn Jackson's final project analyzing affected blood cells through paper casting. Various steps of the paper casting process are documented through images, including soaking cotton and abaca linter in water, beating the pulp, creating plaster molds, pressing paper into molds to form castings, and air drying the castings. The castings were then painted and mounted on a newspaper body form. Remaining paper was used to cover Styrofoam balls. The final installation included the paper castings mounted on the body form and Styrofoam balls hanging to represent affected blood cells.

- 10. Another shot of a clay model for the plaster mold
- 11. Mixing plaster!
- 12. Plaster in the box mold
- 13. Detail shot of clay molds in plaster box mold
- 14. After the plaster cured for a few days, the clay models were ready to be released and discarded

- 26. A completed casting (still wet!)
- 28. Paper castings air drying on a ventilated rack
- 29. Brainst orming ideas for the installation. The newspaper body form was part of a project I started over the summer. I decided to use it for this project.
- 30. After the castings were dry I gently folded in the edges
- 31. Then I glued pieces of the wire to the inside of each casting so it could be easily mounted to the body form
- 32. Detail shot of wire glued to center of casting
- 33. Castings were then airbrush painted.
- 35. Castings mounted on body form
- 38. Detail shot of the castings on the inside of the body form
- 39. Remaining sheets of paper were used to cover Styrofoam balls, and the left over paper pulp was used to add depth to the Styrofoam balls
- 40. Styrofoam balls left to hang dry.
