Life-size body sculptures
Collection to discover here
In this collection you will find life-size body sculptures of women or men. All the sculptures are unique pieces carried out in metal lace and for certain sculptures I added other materials such as glass or the 24 karat gold leaf.
For these sculptures, I model myself on human bodies. I take the shape with strips of plaster. This reworked model allows me to print the shape in a foundry sand mold. Using my personal metal dripping technique, I create the sculpture drip by drop.
For the parties and distant, I melt glass (fusing technique), and I shape it by thermoforming before assembling it to my metal lace.
I covered certain sculptures with 24 carat gold leaf which I apply to my metal lace.
