The middle summit is the broadest, and the outer two fall to a thin edge. It stands on the surface itself and there is no base of any kind beneath it, so whatever it is set on is read as its ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Body Shallow Enough to Read as a Face\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA body this shallow against a ridge that long puts the piece closer to a relief than to a sculpture, and the consequence is that it has a face rather than an aspect. From the front it is a landscape; from ninety degrees round it is an edge barely wider than a paperback. That is not a shortcoming - it is what lets a range this long sit on a shelf at all - but it does decide how the piece is made. The far side is modelled as carefully as the near one, because a relief seen from behind has nowhere to hide, and it is finished to the same standard even though most owners will never look at it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHaving a face rather than an aspect, it wants something behind it rather than room around it: a shelf with a wall behind, a mantel, the back of a console. In the open, half the people in the room see a thin edge and nothing else. It asks for length and almost no depth, which is an easy thing to find, and a dark ground behind it brings the flecks forward.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDepth, a Tint, and Getting It Home\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eExpect 3–4 weeks for a standard piece and 5–6 weeks where the commission is bespoke. The body is shallow against its length, so the piece is read as a face rather than from every side. The depth is drawn greater where a fuller object is wanted, the flake is thinned out, and the body takes a tint of its own. Making it deeper turns a relief into a sculpture and doubles what it asks of a surface, which is the trade to weigh. It travels in one padded case bedded along the whole ridge with both thin ends faced, and one person lifts it flat. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA shallow ridge of three gold-flecked summits belongs with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; a body read as a face puts it in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and flecks brought forward by a dark ground suit 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\u003e21cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e53cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e11cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eClear Cast Resin with Gold Leaf Flecks\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54065941512539,"sku":"S008","price":1957.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/S008.jpg?v=1790847943","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/clear-gold-fleck-low-mountain-range-resin-sculpture-53cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
