During this project I followed a few steps to create a sculpture made of reeds. The first step I followed was I used wet reeds and molded them into the final shape, I used paper clips to keep the shape while the reeds dry, when the reeds were dried in all the spaces I had paper clips I added glue and then put the paper clips back on so the glue could dry. The final step I followed was I added the rice paper to the spot I wanted to make the point of interest and glued it on.
