Render something plastic
1. Does plastic in the following context mean "flexible and not exact"?
2. Does verbal here mean "composed of words"?
Context: Art, on the other hand, has become increasingly conceptual, with a significant number of artists readily presenting their work through the medium of words, despite the continued need to render their conceptualisations plastic in some way. The move into sometimes purely verbal works of art has been aided by a purposeful recuperation of the word in art over the last century.
