{"product_id":"mirror-and-blue-folded-column-resin-sculpture-186cm","title":"Mirror \u0026 Blue Folded Column Resin Sculpture - 186cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne ribbon folded back on itself over and over up a vertical, mirrored through the first folds and clear blue through those above. Mirror silver holds the folds at the foot and a clear blue fills the ones above, so the column changes state halfway up. A square black marble plinth is supplied, and the column stands directly on it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Body That Changes State Halfway Up\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eHalf-mirrored and half-clear, the same argument runs both ways at once: the folds at the foot borrow the room and the ones above let it through. Putting the change at a fold rather than across a face is what makes it read as one object: a line drawn mid-panel would look like two pieces joined, and a fold is a place the eye already expects something to happen. Half the mass gives light back and half lets it through, which asks two different things of the same resin and is why the change sits at a fold. Polished throughout, so the silver reads as reflection and the blue as depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA hall, an atrium or a wide landing, on the floor and clear of furniture. A plain ground behind it, because the blue half will take up whatever is there and the silver half will show it twice. Light from one side runs down the silver and stops where the blue starts, which is the whole effect. From the door the silver carries first, and the blue separates from it at about four paces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMoving the Change, and Getting It In\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery standard piece is made in 3–4 weeks, and every bespoke commission in 5–6. The change is drawn further up the column or further down it, the blue is deepened, and a shallower plinth is cut. Move the change higher and the silver has to be deepened, since the top of the column carries less of it to work with. Plinth first, set down and levelled, then the column lowered onto it. Two people throughout. Two people, hands on the folds nearest the foot and gloved for the silver. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA folded column changing state halfway up stands in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/indoor-sculptures\"\u003eindoor sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; its sharp, repeated folds belong with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/contemporary-modern-sculptures\"\u003econtemporary and modern sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and the blue carried above the silver joins it to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin 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\u003e126cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e51.1cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e37.9cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50 x 50 x 60cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePart Mirror-Polished 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":54104273846619,"sku":"Z627","price":4117.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/Z627.jpg?v=1790778392","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/mirror-and-blue-folded-column-resin-sculpture-186cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
