Just an idea

 This is a rough plan of an idea we had for a pillar display on the ground floor of the museum.
The idea was to produce a framed panel that would have the face and hand of a muse attached to it.
The hand could hold anything that relates to the art that the muse represents. This could be a book of poetry, a scroll or a musical instrument for example.
The background panel could also be painted or decorated to illustrate which muse is being represented, using images that respond to the museum's collection.
We discussed producing nine of these to be displayed on each of the pillars on the ground floor.(But we would produce only one in reality, as an example for the purpose of this project.)

These casts were made using mod roc molds of a hand and face which were then cast in plaster.
The face is unfinished and needs to be trimmed and polished ready for display.
