{"product_id":"clear-rooted-tree-resin-sculpture-155cm","title":"Clear Rooted Tree Resin Sculpture - 155cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA tree whose trunk leans out over a root sweep that runs further on one side than the other, and every branch carries pointed leaves along its length. Colourless from root to leaf, so the branching is read as line and the leaves as bright flecks along it. Fine twigs at the end of each branch carry the smallest leaves, so the canopy thins to a lace at its edges.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Canopy Carried by the Root and Not the Trunk\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA tree drawn this thin cannot be carried by its trunk, so the root sweep does the work and reaches furthest on the side the canopy does not. Each leaf is drawn on its own rather than cut from a sheet, which is why no two canopies come out of the studio alike. The resin is what lets a leaf this thin exist at all: each one returns a bright edge and almost nothing between, so the canopy is read as a scatter of edges. Polished on every branch and leaf, with the root sweep taken to the same grade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFloor work for a wide room, set where the lean of the trunk has space to fall into. The wall behind it should be dark. On a pale one the canopy has no outline to speak of. Side light finds every leaf edge at once; flat light leaves the whole canopy grey. The eye follows the lean of the trunk first and finds the leaves only from a pace or two away.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat Can Be Redrawn on a Tree This Thin\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOrder a standard piece and it takes 3–4 weeks; order it bespoke and it takes 5–6. Say the word and the leaf count is changed, the lean is set at another angle, or the canopy is drawn out wider or kept close. Change the lean and the root sweep is redrawn under it, because what holds the tree up is where the roots end rather than how thick the trunk is. Trunk and outer branches are crated apart and put together where the tree will stand. Three people. The leaf edges are the thinnest thing on it and they lead. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA clear tree leaning out over its own roots leads to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; its canopy of pointed leaves sits with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and more for a wide floor space is in 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\u003e155cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e130cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e114cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eClear Cast Resin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54147339419995,"sku":"Z259","price":16674.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/Z259_df0f1002-0ba4-41e7-a4bc-691082dda3cc.jpg?v=1791461052","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/clear-rooted-tree-resin-sculpture-155cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
