Introduction to plaster casting.

Student, Gilberto Guzman, wanted to address the horrific violence occurring in his home country of Mexico as the government battles drug cartels. He cast several weapons in plaster and set the pieces in a suitcase. Using the suitcase as a form of conveyance, he implicates the United States, as a source of smuggled weapons in the tens of thousands of deaths that have occurred in Mexico in the last few years.
