Projects: Using plants, like dandelions, in ‘resin-art’ (encasing in epoxy)

Nick Zammeti is well known in the world of creatives for making weird and wonderful experiments like his flux capacitor with Entropy Resins® Epoxy.

In one of his most recent videos, he experiments with using living botanical matter, encasing it in epoxy. Nick can be seen pushing the boundaries by hair spraying the dandelion prior to submerging it into his blended mix.

Nick says: “I thought the hairspray thing might work really well, and actually it did.”

Encasing flowers is something the Epoxycraft team has been asked about a number of times over the years.

“Usually it’s someone who has some very treasured flowers from a significant event in their lives,” says Hamish Cook, Epoxycraft technical team member. “A lot of moisture in the flowers could affect the epoxy and a little moisture may lead to discolouration of the flowers over time. The drier the flowers are, the better. Using freshly cut flowers, especially if they’re from a sentimental event, is not a good idea.”
