A Set of New Skills: Aluminium Casting was made as part of Metro Art’s project, The Mechanics of Adaption. Over a period of 8 weeks, 5 artists worked with students from the Sycamore School & Traction. These workshops used materials from decommissioned CityCycle bikes as a starting point.

During the workshops we experimented with wax and pinkysil casts, as well as clay, plaster and tyre imprints. Aluminium from the handlebars and seat posts were melted down and cast as support brackets. Aluminium was also cast on top of the plaster tyre imprints. The DIY forge was made using a hairdryer and coals with help from Bruce Grillmeier via zoom.
