To begin the process of setting up the degree show, firstly we had to plot where everyone's work was going to be displayed in the space. This was done by everyone creating a mini maquette and placing them in a scale model of the space. This way we could determine basically where everyone would be placed.

The first job I needed to do was to create a plinth for the sculpt. I wanted this to be a simple box with seamless edges, so as to not take away from the piece. Luckily I found a plinth in a size that matched my designs and that was tall enough for the piece to look high up. To connect the sculpt securely, I simply welded two rods to a base and screwed the base into the bottom of the box, the poles then stuck out the top allowing the sculpt to slide onto them safely.
