Materials and making

Cast bronze

Bronze holds detail that few materials can. Each bronze is cast from the same mould and hand-chased to retain the detail of the artist's original. Patina is applied individually, so tonal and surface variation should be expected across the edition.

Material: Patinated and polished bronze
Dimensions: 430 x 579 x 443 mm.
Edition: 14 + 3 Artist's Proofs (AP)
Signature: Engraved

01
Mould and wax
The artist's original is captured in a flexible mould, from which a hollow wax replica is taken and refined by hand until every surface matches the source.
02
Lost-wax casting
The wax is encased in a ceramic shell and fired; the wax runs out and molten bronze is poured into the void it leaves, taking on the exact form of the original.
03
Chasing and assembly
The rough cast is released from its shell, sprues removed, and seams chased away by hand so the metal reads as a single continuous surface.
04
Patina and finish
The finished bronze is coloured with heat and chemistry, then sealed with a hand-applied patina unique to each edition.
