{"product_id":"blue-textured-lobe-open-curve-resin-sculpture-31cm","title":"Blue Textured Lobe Open Curve Resin Sculpture - 31cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA polished blue form, open through the middle so the two sides turn past one another. One lobe carries a field of fine dimples and every other surface is left smooth. The colour deepens where the material is thickest. It settles wherever the curve touches down, and nothing is supplied to seat it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOne Textured Field and No More\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTexture on a transparent object is a stronger tool than it is on an opaque one, because it does not sit on the surface: it scatters the light coming through from behind and turns a piece of the body opaque. That makes it expensive to use. A second textured field anywhere on this form would divide the piece into two bright halves with two dull patches and no argument between them. So there is one, placed on the lobe that faces away from the opening, where it stops the eye at the far side of the turn and sends it back through the gap. The rest of the object is left to do what clear material does.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 31cm it has no front and can be seen from every side, so it needs a place that can be walked around or at least approached from two directions, such as an island or a central table. The dimpled field is the one thing that changes completely with the angle, appearing as a pale patch from one side and vanishing from the other. That happens under light coming from behind it rather than from overhead.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Texture, the Opening, and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom order, a standard piece runs to 3–4 weeks and a bespoke commission to 5–6. The dimpled field is drawn broader or moved to the other lobe, the opening is cut wider, and the blue is deepened or taken toward a green. A version with no texture at all is made and is a cleaner, colder object. It is also cast at other sizes. It is sent in one box in a cut bed supporting both lobes with the opening bridged, and one person lifts it. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne lobe textured and the rest left smooth is \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculpture\u003c\/a\u003e; the blue body is \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin sculpture\u003c\/a\u003e; and a form with no front is \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/indoor-sculptures\"\u003eindoor sculpture\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\u003e30cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e31cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24.9cm\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":54069534982491,"sku":"X238","price":1890.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/X238.jpg?v=1790958397","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/blue-textured-lobe-open-curve-resin-sculpture-31cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
