A splayed foot carries a body that turns right over at the top into an open flare, with a fin-like plane swung out to one side at about half the height. It is cast colourless and polished, so the room behind shows through the body and every edge carries a line of light. A black marble plinth is supplied, and the piece bears on it through the splay of its foot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eColourless Resin Drawn Into an Arch\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eColourless resin shows everything about a form, because the eye reads its edges and its thicknesses at once: where the body is thick the room behind it bends, and where it thins to the fin and the flare it becomes almost a line of light. There is no flat anywhere on it, so the highlights travel as you walk past and nothing in it stays put. At this height every curve has to run evenly along its whole length, because the eye follows the full rise of the body, and a casting this tall is poured with care so that no cloud forms anywhere in it. Polished on every face, inside the flare as much as outside it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn entrance hall, a wide landing or a garden room, with a darker wall behind it so the clear edges have something to read against. Light from the side picks out the fin and the flare in bright lines; light from straight ahead flattens the whole body to grey. It reads as a bright vertical from the far end of a room and only becomes an arch at about five paces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Tint, the Plinth, and Getting It In\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOrder a standard piece and it takes 3–4 weeks; order it bespoke and it takes 5–6. The arch is drawn further over, a colour can be added through the body, and the plinth is cut in a paler stone. Draw the arch further over and the plinth is widened, because the top already stands outside the foot. Plinth down and levelled, the casting is then set onto it, and its wrapping stays on until everything round it is finished. Two people and gloves throughout, since a fingerprint on clear resin shows in any light. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTall arched uprights with a fin swung out at half height stand in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/indoor-sculptures\"\u003eindoor sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, its turned-over flare suits our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/contemporary-modern-sculptures\"\u003econtemporary and modern sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and the cast body itself belongs to 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\u003e140cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e65 x 50 x 30cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eClear Cast Resin on Black Marble\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54102706323803,"sku":"Z031","price":5872.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/Z031.jpg?v=1790875526","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/clear-arched-upright-resin-sculpture-170cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
