La Boheme, by Giacomo Puccini
The Glimmerglass Festival, 2016
Scene Design by: Kevin Depinet
A quick afternoon project: a block of rigid insulation foam, shaped and coated with Flex Glue and sawdust. Once dry, it was painted and twine tied into the divots. It was finished off with a rich FEV to pop the depth of color, tone down the twine, and seal the paint. It was wrapped in brown paper for the stage and lived in a basket of other foods.
