{"product_id":"red-and-clear-crossed-block-resin-sculpture-47cm","title":"Red \u0026 Clear Crossed Block Resin Sculpture - 47cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn upright block with a second set across it at an angle, the two joined through a section left colourless between them. Red through both blocks, with the section between them left colourless. The foot is cut flat and nothing comes underneath it, so it stands straight on the surface it is given.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Lean Held by What Is Not There\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe clear section is doing the work and looking like it is doing none: it reads as air between two solids, so the upper block appears to rest on nothing. Tint it and the piece becomes three blocks instead of two. The mass is what carries the contrast: a red block reads as a solid and the clear section between them reads as air, and both are the same body. Polished on every face and every arris, with the corners left sharp rather than eased.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA desk or a bookshelf suits it, turned so the upper block leans into the room. Set it against a pale ground, so the clear section between the blocks reads as a gap. Light from one side throws the upper block's shadow across the one beneath it, which is what makes the lean legible. The lean reads from across a room; the clear join is a near fact and nothing else is.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAnother Angle, and Nothing to Assemble\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eReckon on 3–4 weeks for a standard piece, or 5–6 weeks for a bespoke one. On request the upper block is set at another angle, the red is exchanged, or the whole is made at another height. Set the upper block at another angle and the clear section is redrawn to carry it, since that section is what holds the lean. A single crate, and it is out of it and standing in a moment. One person, and the only surprise is how heavy a block of this size is. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo red blocks joined through a clear section stand in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/indoor-sculptures\"\u003eindoor sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; their crossed geometry suits our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/contemporary-modern-sculptures\"\u003econtemporary and modern sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and its clear join belongs with 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\u003e47cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e26cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e19.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast Red and Clear Resin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54145954775387,"sku":"Z585","price":2360.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/Z585.jpg?v=1790776219","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/red-and-clear-crossed-block-resin-sculpture-47cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
