1. What is the name of your profession (position)?

My profession is called a sculptor.

2. What is your job and what are your responsibilities?

These are bas-reliefs, and columns, and ceiling rosettes, and balusters, and cornices, and consoles, and other architectural extravagances. It should be noted that stucco never goes out of fashion, products change over time, but always enjoy popularity.

The casting method consists in the fact that the gypsum solution is poured into soft silicone or polyurethane molds, then it is shaken and after 15-20 minutes the finished product is removed. The broach method is used in the manufacture of ceiling cornices, column bodies and pilasters, moldings. Here, the gypsum mortar is evenly distributed on a large table, and with the help of a special device, the product is pulled.

My working day begins with the preparation of casting molds. The necessary forms are put on the table, processed with a special compound. Then a gypsum mortar is kneaded with the addition of pigments, and this solution is poured into molds. When the gypsum hardens (after 15 minutes), the finished products (panels, rosettes, cornices) are removed from the mold, cleaned of defects and transferred to the dryer.

5. How comfortable are your working conditions (all day outside, or in the office with a cup of coffee)?

The whole process takes place in the workshop.
