{"product_id":"blue-bare-tree-splash-cast-resin-sculpture-124cm","title":"Blue Bare Tree Splash Cast Resin Sculpture - 124cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDeep blue where it rises and clear at its tips, this cast resin sculpture branches the way a bare tree does, dividing all the way to a canopy of fine points. From a dense knot of water at the foot several stems spring at once: a heavy trunk climbs on one side and divides near the top into antler-like branches, slender shoots rise beside it, a second branch twists up on the other side, and one more reaches out low and sideways. The blue thins out at the same rate the material does, which is why the canopy reads as light and the foot reads as weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIt Branches the Way a Bare Tree Does\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe difficulty here is at the top rather than at the bottom, which is the opposite of most of what the house makes. On a form that tapers, the highest part is also the slightest, so the canopy is at once the most exposed region and the one that carries the design: if the branches thin out too soon the top reads as broken, and if they stay heavy it reads as a bush. So each stem divides again as it climbs, the forks finer each time, until the ends are no more than points. Every branch is drawn to the one beside it rather than to a template, so the silhouette is decided last and is never twice the same.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe canopy is the reason for it, so it needs headroom and a ground plain enough for the branches to be counted against. Under a low ceiling the top of the piece is crowded and the form loses the one thing it is doing; in front of a busy wall the ends disappear entirely. At 124cm it suits a stairwell, a double-height hall or any position with a clear field above the eye. It is worth standing where it can be seen from below as well as across, since the branches read as a canopy only from underneath and as a flat drawing from square on.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWeakest Exactly Where It Is Highest, and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhere the piece is standard the build is 3–4 weeks, and where it is bespoke 5–6. The branches carry on dividing right to the top where the material is thinnest, and the top of the piece is where it is weakest. The height is cut to order, the canopy is drawn open or closed, and a smoke grey is used in place of the blue. The depth of the blue at the foot is set at order too, and the piece can be supplied with a stone base where the floor is uneven. It comes in one tall braced crate lying down, the canopy faced branch by branch, and it is raised to standing on site before it is carried anywhere. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlue water branching like a bare tree into a canopy of clear points spreads into 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\u003e124cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e70cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e35cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast Blue Resin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54029414007131,"sku":"L164","price":4681.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/L164.jpg?v=1791890307","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/blue-bare-tree-splash-cast-resin-sculpture-124cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
