mold casting
Hollow form filling
Mold casting is a manufacturing process in which liquid material—metal, plastic, plaster, or resin—is poured into a hollow mold and allowed to harden into a specific shape.
The technique ranges from industrial production to artistic work: bronze sculptures are made by mold casting.
