Now, as for what you have been waiting for … (ta-ta-di -daaaahhhhh): from my explorations with line, I have finally some results in silver, which I am excited to share with you – new pieces in their infancy.
Enjoy these informal photos of some of what has been happening over the past few days.
At first, it is all a pretty jumbled mess …
Then, I start examining the new casts more carefully…
I start seeing things, reigning the whole thing back in:
Further shapes appear:
I would love to work with this, alas the cast is too delicate, and the metal too thin. It would never withstand the wear. Plus: watch me trying to put hand-made, one-of-a-kind tiaras on the market! Hahaha, funny … as pretty as it’d be! So sad … :(
Some other things I picked out: lines, lines, lines! (you can see the ‘sprue’ in these images; where the silver flowed into the lost-cast mold) …
All this being in silver now, an idea made manifest, is super exciting.
My next task will be to bring these metal experiments into a relationship to the body!!!
