{"product_id":"clear-ripple-disc-and-steel-column-resin-sculpture-170cm","title":"Clear Ripple Disc \u0026 Steel Column Resin Sculpture - 170cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA colourless disc of clear resin cut on its face with concentric rings that tighten toward the centre, in the way rings spread from a point on still water. A column of mirror-polished stainless steel carries it and comes with it, making it a floor object rather than a surface one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eNo Two Rings Show the Same Thing\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach ring is a curved face on a body you can see through, and none of them shows you the same thing. Stand in front of the piece and the room behind arrives through every ring at its own size, so the background is taken apart into bands and put back together slightly wrong. Walk past and the bands turn with you. That is the reason the rings are cut deep and spaced unevenly, tighter at the middle and opening toward the rim: even spacing gives a regular pattern the eye dismisses as decoration, while uneven spacing keeps it reading as something happening. The column is mirror-polished for the same argument, so it disappears into whatever is around it and nothing visible is holding the disc up.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 170cm it is a floor object met at eye level, which is the height the rings are drawn for. It needs something worth looking at behind it, because the whole piece is a device for altering what is there: a window, a run of a room, a lit wall at some distance. Put it in front of a blank wall a foot away and it has nothing to work with. Leave the floor around it clear and keep the approach open for a few paces, since the effect builds as you walk toward it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Column, the Cut, and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eExpect 3–4 weeks for a standard piece and 5–6 weeks where the commission is bespoke. The ring spacing is redrawn, the disc is cut at other diameters, and the column is cut down for a plinth or run up for a double-height room. A brushed column is offered in place of the mirror one and changes the piece considerably, since a brushed surface stays visible and the disc then reads as mounted rather than floating. A tinted disc is also made. It travels in two crates, the column braced along its length and the disc bedded on its face, and two people handle each. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA mirror column belongs with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/stainless-steel-sculptures\"\u003estainless steel sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; rings spreading out from a dropped stone sit among our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and a disc held at eye level joins 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\u003e59cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e59cm\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\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e35 x 35 x 111cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eClear Cast Resin on Mirror-Polished Stainless Steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54069247836507,"sku":"X190","price":6345.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/X190.jpg?v=1790956332","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/clear-ripple-disc-and-steel-column-resin-sculpture-170cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
