{"product_id":"blue-and-clear-winged-scholars-rock-resin-sculpture-57cm","title":"Blue \u0026 Clear Winged Scholar's Rock Resin Sculpture - 57cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis resin scholar's rock is broad for its depth, and black marble is supplied under it. From a blue stem the material sweeps up and out to the right into a broad flat wing that ends in a torn edge, with a second, lesser wing turning back to the left. The colour divides on a diagonal: a deep saturated blue holds the stem and the left, and the wing runs almost colourless.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Diagonal Split Between Blue and Clear\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe colour boundary runs across the piece rather than up it, and that is the whole composition. Below and to the left the blue is dense enough to read as a solid, streaked through with white where it has moved, and it holds the visual weight of the object. Above and to the right the same material gives up its colour entirely, so the wing reads as an outline with a bright edge and almost nothing inside it. Between the two the change happens over a short band and is streaked rather than clean. The wing is thin enough that its torn end is the thickest thing about it, and the whole piece therefore looks quite different edge on, where the wing collapses to a line and only the blue stem is left. The blue is worked wet, so no two divide in the same place.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 57cm it suits a long console or a boardroom shelf, which give it the width it needs, and it wants nothing standing to its right, since the wing reaches out that way and the space is part of the form. Face on is the view to plan for. A pale wall behind suits this one better than a dark one, because the clear wing needs something to read against while the blue stem carries itself. Light from the left brings the blue up; light from the right passes through the wing and loses it. Indoor use only.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhere the Colour Divides, and Which Way the Wing Turns\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOrder a standard piece and it takes 3–4 weeks; order it bespoke and it takes 5–6. Two things are set at order and both change the object substantially. The first is the division: the blue can be held low as here, brought up to take the stem and half the wing, or dropped almost out so the piece reads clear with a blue foot. The second is handing. The wing sweeps right on this one and is made sweeping left, which matters when it is going into a corner or at one end of a long surface, and it should be chosen from the room rather than left open. On colour: this blue is standard, and a green, an amber and a smoke grey are all made, with the white streaking optional. Depth can be increased for a freestanding position, which thickens the wing and makes it read less like a blade. It travels standing with the wing boxed out on both faces, since that is the vulnerable part, and one person can carry it. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA wing of clear resin swept off a blue stem belongs with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/abstract-sculptures\"\u003eabstract sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; a diagonal split between blue and colourless joins it to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and blue worked wet into clear resin suits our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e51cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25 x 20 x 6cm, Included\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImported Clear Resin with Black Marble Base\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53956671471963,"sku":"T025","price":1889.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/T025.jpg?v=1790858039","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/blue-and-clear-winged-scholars-rock-resin-sculpture-57cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
