Work Overview
An under-performing space is identified and selected to be redefined by means of a creative intervention.
Within the space, a wall is designated to receive a securely mounted relief sculpture as a subtle gesture and newfound expression.
The relief sculpture, concept-driven and commissioned as a limited edition, is a robust cast of an abstracted human figure walking in full stride.
Sculpture
Life-Sized Abstracted Male Figure Walking in Full Stride
Reinforced Plaster
Interior Space / Gypsum Wall Board / Smooth Finish
Hand crafted to custom fit and match your space.
The sculpture is cast in an industrial grade plaster and reinforced with evenly distributed fiberglass bracing to achieve robust structural integrity. The cast’s outer finish would be designed to match the wall it is to be mounted to.
Overall, the sculpture is designed as a life-sized male figure measuring 6 feet in height and protrudes into a space no more than 30 inches.
Built into the cast is a french cleat strategically located at the center of the sculpture's mass to ensure its 100 lb. weight is evenly transferred to the wall.
Made to Match
The life-sized plaster sculpture is intended to have a finish surface that matches your walls’. To achieve this aesthetic, the wall’s finish (visible texture, touch, and light absorption) is acutely studied; texture samples are collected in the field, analyzed, and modeled onto the surfaces of plaster samples for side-by-side comparison and approval. Once the textures are deemed a match, the skin surfaces are applied to the life-sized figure mold for casting.
