{"product_id":"clear-pierced-rock-resin-sculpture-130cm","title":"Clear Pierced Rock Resin Sculpture - 130cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA vertical rock worked through with openings from every side, the passages running clean from one face to another rather than stopping inside. Colourless throughout, so the openings read as shadow and the solid between them as light. Two supports are supplied, both in white marble: a square block, and under it a broad, thin slab of the same stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Rock Made of Its Own Openings\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery opening takes material the rock still has to stand on, so the solid between them is drawn heavier than the outline suggests. That is why the piece looks light and is not. A body pierced from every side is why the colour matters so little here: what the eye follows is the run of the openings, and a clear casting keeps them all visible at once. Worked over the whole surface and through every opening, with nothing polished flat anywhere on it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFloor work beside a wall or at the foot of a stair, set clear of it so the openings read through. A dark ground behind it. A pierced colourless rock on a pale wall has no holes at all. Light from behind is what turns the openings into a drawing; light from in front leaves them as dents. What carries is the silhouette; the openings resolve one at a time as you come near.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCutting Further Through, and Three Parts to Stack\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking a standard piece takes 3–4 weeks, and making a bespoke one 5–6. Say the word and the openings are cut further through, the stone is changed, or the two supports are made as one. Cut the openings further through and the body between them is drawn heavier, because what is left is what holds the rock up. Three crates, the plate laid first, the block set on it and levelled, and the rock lowered on last. Two people for the rock and two for the supports, and the openings are not handles. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA clear rock worked through with openings joins our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; its colourless body sets it with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and floor space with light behind it serves it best among 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\u003e105cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e35.7cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e19.4cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40 x 40 x 20cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase Plate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e45 x 45 x 5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eClear Cast Resin on Natural Marble\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54145955791195,"sku":"Z608","price":2564.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/Z608.jpg?v=1790778357","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/clear-pierced-rock-resin-sculpture-130cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
