Spray breaks from every edge in fingers and droplets. The colour is a bright sky blue in the swell at the foot and it clears to colourless glass in the arching crests and the spray.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTwo Crests Arching Until Their Spray Meets\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo waves that meet overhead make a gateway, and the opening between them is as much a part of the piece as the water around it. That is why the arch is kept wide and the ring left clear. The blue is held in the swell, where the water would be deepest, and lets go as the crests rise, so the colour describes depth the way real water does. The fingers of spray are drawn out long and end in rounded tips, like drops gathering at the end of a jet, which keeps them reading as water rather than as ornament.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt needs floor and width, a hall or a reception above all, so that people come towards it head on and see the ring frame whatever lies beyond. A plain wall or a view behind it gives the opening something to frame. Light from behind turns the blue luminous and sets the spray glittering. At a distance the arch and its ring are what carry; the spray and droplets are the close view.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Arch, the Blue and a Long Crate\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost pieces are standard and take 3–4 weeks; a bespoke commission takes 5–6. There are three things to choose. The crests can be drawn to meet more fully or left with a gap between them, the blue can be taken higher into the crests or kept to the swell, and the spray can be made finer. Join them more fully and the crests are built heavier where they meet, since the spray has to carry across. It travels in a long crate laid flat, and three people stand it up and set it in place. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo crests joined overhead around a ring of open water, sky blue at the swell, bring this wave to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e and our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/indoor-sculptures\"\u003eindoor 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\u003e115cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e180cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e34cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlue-Tinted Cast Resin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54208183828827,"sku":"L016","price":11439.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/L016.jpg?v=1791824896","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/blue-and-clear-arching-twin-crest-wave-resin-sculpture-180cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
