Project 4 Alternative Kinda Relating to the actual Theme

So, instead of following exactly the theme on "bodies", I'm utilizing this project to work on several pieces for my IDS undergraduate thesis. My thesis is "The Resurfacing of Monsters in Japanese Media", I'm using 3D printing as an exploration of the metaphorical version of resurfacing within my thesis. As one form of resurfacing is the my reinterpretation of what is conceptually two-dimensional and referencing off of existing images to create a three-dimensional form. At the same time, I'm using the plastic prints to make toy-like figures and masks which follow a form of mascotization, which is a type of resurfacing.
