{"product_id":"clear-sweeping-tree-resin-sculpture-190cm","title":"Clear Sweeping Tree Resin Sculpture - 190cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA tree carried almost horizontally, the trunk reading as one long sweep from the root mass out to the canopy, with the branching gathered at the far end of it. Colourless from root to leaf, with the trunk reading deepest because there is most of it to look through. It is a hanging piece: the whole tree is suspended level in the air, so it is seen from below as much as from the side.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Canopy Sits Outside the Roots\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA tree carried almost horizontally is drawn to be seen in the air, and the sweep is thickened along its length so it reads as a single movement and not as a line of separate branches. The root mass is drawn back behind the lean to answer the canopy, so the tree balances as a whole when it hangs. Drawing a trunk as one long sweep in a clear body lets the material do the shading, so the tree darkens toward the root without any change of colour. Polished throughout, and the underside of the sweep, which is what a hanging tree mostly shows, is taken as far as the top of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt hangs over a stairwell, an atrium or a long dining space, where it can be seen from below and from the side, and it wants a ceiling with height to spare. A plain, pale ceiling or wall behind it lets the clear branches read; against glazing a colourless canopy disappears. One source set high and off to the side picks out each branch edge, and the eye is led along the trunk rather than up it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBringing the Span In, and Hanging It\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA standard piece takes 3–4 weeks to make, and a bespoke commission 5–6. Ask us to bring the span in, to open the canopy out, or to set the root sweep at another angle. Bring the span in and the canopy is rebalanced over the roots, because the tree has to hang level. It is delivered flat in one long case, and where it will hang is agreed before it arrives. Three people and a clear route; it is the length rather than the weight that catches on a doorframe. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA clear tree carried almost level leads to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; the long sweep of casting joins our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and a wide room gives it the span it needs 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\u003e190cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e146cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eClear Cast Resin, Polished Throughout\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54145036550491,"sku":"Z486","price":13499.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/Z486.jpg?v=1790877159","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/clear-sweeping-tree-resin-sculpture-190cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
