Silicone is a material made of polymers, frequently used in sculpture and for making theater props. Silicone is as resistant as glass and as versatile as plastic materials, and is also lighter than clay or metal sculptures, so it presents many advantages for sculptors and scenographers. Silicone can be used to make hyperrealistic sculptures that have a life-like appearance. The making of a silicone sculpture involves the use of a mold, which you can make based on a model or a prototype or purchase.
