{"product_id":"clear-tree-resin-sculpture-on-marble-plinth-260cm","title":"Clear Tree Resin Sculpture on Marble Plinth - 260cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA clear resin tree, the trunk leaning out of a tall black plinth and opening into a canopy of branches, every one of them drawn separately and carried well out to one side. Colourless from root to leaf, so the black of the stone underneath is the only tone anywhere in the piece. A tall black marble plinth comes with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Canopy Built Entirely From Overlap\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA tree in a colourless material has no bark and no leaf colour to work with, so the whole of it has to be got across by branching alone. What makes the canopy read as dense is that each branch is seen through every branch behind it, and nothing at all has been added to the material to achieve that. A tree in a colourless body means every branch is read through every branch behind it, and the canopy gets its density from overlap rather than from anything added to the material. Polished over the whole of it, the undersides of the branches included, and that is where the hours go.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFloor work, and a room with height: the canopy starts above head height and wants somewhere it can be walked under. Give it a plain wall to read against. A window behind a colourless tree turns the branches into a tangle. Light from one side sets every branch edge alight and throws the whole canopy onto the wall as a second drawing. It reads from across a room by the lean alone, and the individual leaves are what you get for standing underneath it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDrawing the Spread In, and Two Crates\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eExpect 3–4 weeks for a standard piece and 5–6 weeks where the commission is bespoke. The spread can be drawn in, the canopy can be built out further, and other plinth heights are available. Draw the spread in and the stone is cut to match, because a canopy reaching this far needs a counterweight beneath it and not a foot. Two crates, put together on site: the plinth is set and levelled before the tree goes onto it. Three people. The canopy is the fragile half and nobody should take hold of a branch. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA resin tree bending out over black stone belongs to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; the branching casting joins our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and a tall room suits it 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\u003e160.7cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e124.3cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e102.6cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40 x 40 x 99cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast Clear Resin on a Black Marble Plinth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54113484013915,"sku":"Z505","price":8235.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/Z505.jpg?v=1790774762","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/clear-tree-resin-sculpture-on-marble-plinth-260cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
