The various genres are highlighted and applications in the form of case studies presented as succinctly as possible. The empathy some artists have for particular media is also touched upon.

Summary
Life-sized models (Image 1): The aim here was to create life-sized replicas of living animals and juxtapose them with natural materials ( rocks and vegetation) to give an impression of these animals in their natural environment. Scaled-up versions (Image 2): These were created to shock, and were designed to be rather grandiose. They were primarily used for outdoor public spaces and. Combining ferrocement with other materials (Images 3 & 4): We have sometimes found it imperative to combine fabric, wax and sealant to produce different. Wax and sealant were used to create minute details like the tentacles of an anemone and of a Nautilus. These pieces cannot be displayed outdoors, nor can they be touchable by the public, as they are delicate, and can be damaged and need protection
