Gold leaf is scattered through the clear resin from top to bottom, so every block carries its own flecks of colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHewn Blocks Turning Against Each Other\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach block reads as a separate plane-sided mass, and the twist lives in the angles between them, so the edges stay sharp where one block meets the next. The gold is held inside the casting rather than laid over it, and where a plane passes through a fleck the leaf breaks the face as a single bright point. No two castings place the leaf in quite the same way, so each piece carries its own scatter. Seen from above, the blocks step round in a loose spiral, which is why the figure never settles into a single front.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 26cm it fits a desk or a windowsill and is light enough to be turned in the hand. A twisting figure changes from every side, so give it space all round instead of a place against a wall. Side light picks out the gold and the hard edges together. A dark shelf or a stone top beneath it gives the clear blocks an edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLeaf Scatter, the Twist and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eStandard pieces take 3–4 weeks and bespoke commissions 5–6. Copper or silver leaf can replace the gold, at any density, and the resin can be tinted smoke, amber or a pale violet. The twist can be eased toward a straighter stance, and any size can be made. The blocks can be cut squarer or more broken, depending on how rough a surface is wanted. A group is cast in a single run so the leaf matches. It is packed in a sleeved box that one person can carry. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA torso of hewn blocks turning against each other belongs with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/classic-sculptures\"\u003eclassic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; plane-sided masses meeting at sharp angles lead to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/abstract-sculptures\"\u003eabstract sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and clear resin scattered with gold joins 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\u003e26cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e22cm\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\u003eOptically Clear Cast Resin with Gold Leaf\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54259950125403,"sku":"R038-2","price":1417.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/R038__2.jpg?v=1791305396","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/clear-gold-flecked-twisting-torso-resin-sculpture-26cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
