I expect your solution to take up a similar space as a small person even if the components are massed together (many and small). Be as interpretive about the figure as you like. Think about how it might aesthetically reflect your artist statement and go alongside work you do in other mediums, so that it reflects you.
Cardboard maks a good armature medium, but wide masking tape will really be valuable weather working with wire or cardboard. Bring your own pair of pliers for bending wire and take them with you when you are not in the studio.
Paper mache paste can be as simple as wood glue and water, do some research on formulas.
Look to the links here for paper mache tips and techniques.
Rachel asked if she could get started before Monday... Of course... whatever you need to do to make the end of the semester wind down efficiently. You all should have some skill in armature making from Design 2 projects with wire and paper and gel medium, so by all means start anytime.
See you Monday. Have a productive weekend.
