{"product_id":"amber-to-clear-draped-torso-resin-sculpture-158cm","title":"Amber to Clear Draped Torso Resin Sculpture - 158cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA female torso with a length of drapery lifting away from one shoulder and rising clear above the head, standing on a tall block with a line of gold let into its face. Amber fills the body and the drape above it is colourless, so the two halves of the piece are read differently. A tall black marble block is supplied with a line of gold let into its face.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOne Body Read as Two Things\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdding a drape to the same kind of body gives it a second silhouette, and the two are read at different distances. The drape is colourless and the body is not, so from across a room you see a warm figure and from close to you see a cold one wearing something that is barely there. The casting has to put the change from amber to colourless exactly at the shoulder, because a body warm below and empty above is read as two things and the join is what makes it one. Polished throughout, and the drape is polished on its inner face where very little of it is seen.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA hall, a landing or a wide bedroom, turned so the drape sweeps into the room. A pale ground. The drape is nearly transparent and will show whatever stands behind it. Light from behind fills the drape and leaves the body dark, which is the reverse of how it reads from the front. The drape is what catches the eye from the door and the amber body is what holds it once you are near.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDrawing the Drape Out, and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eLead times run 5–6 weeks bespoke and 3–4 standard. The amber is taken toward red, the drape is drawn further out, and the gold line is left off the block. Draw the drape further out and the block has to be widened, since the reach already sits outside the footprint. The block travels beside the torso in one crate, goes down first, and is levelled before anything is set on it. Two people, and the drape is not a handhold at any point. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA torso with a drape lifting off one shoulder stands in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/indoor-sculptures\"\u003eindoor sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; the drape's modern handling suits our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/contemporary-modern-sculptures\"\u003econtemporary and modern sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and its amber body clearing upward joins our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e113.2cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e38.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e34.6cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e22 x 20.3 x 44.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast Resin Graded Amber to Clear on Natural Marble\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54104275550555,"sku":"Z590","price":3847.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/Z590.jpg?v=1790776228","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/amber-to-clear-draped-torso-resin-sculpture-158cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
