If I were to explain the phenomenon Stucco before I did my thesis, I would have said that it is a plaster paste that is used within architecture and interior architecture, that carries a lot of history and tradition. Stucco is a genuine handcraft and this element has the ability to affect a space in many ways.
There are many things I find interesting with Stucco but my aim has been to experiment with this phenomenon.
How does stucco affect a space, if it is unexpected objects that are pictured in it,instead of the classic greenery?
I have treated the questions: What if I show the human touch a bit more, the history behind the copying of an original? And how does a space turn out, where the Stucco is closer to the body, and not only to be looked at from a distance?
Copying has been my method, and I’ve been using this in different ways. I have explored different ways of copying ordinary things, and I’ve aimed to use the qualities I have found in copying to something interesting. Something that might be called a stucco.
