{"product_id":"red-clouded-inclusion-mass-resin-sculpture-25cm","title":"Red Clouded Inclusion Mass Resin Sculpture - 25cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA red mass clouded through with broken inclusions. The outside is smooth and unbroken, with no cut or facet anywhere on it, so nothing on the surface competes with the fractures held inside it, which are read by looking past the polish into the material. A flat is taken off the underside so it will not roll, and no stand comes with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eEverything Happens Inside the Surface\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe outside of this piece is deliberately uneventful. It is a smooth rounded mass with no cut, no facet and no opening, because every one of those would compete with what is going on inside it. The inclusions are broken planes suspended through the body, and they are read by looking past a polished surface into the material, which only works if the surface itself gives the eye nothing to stop at. A faceted exterior would have thrown a highlight at every edge and the interior would have disappeared behind them. The red is chosen at a strength that lets light reach the middle: a deeper tint would have made a handsome solid object with nothing visible inside it, and a paler one would have left the inclusions looking like flaws rather than like structure. The flat on the underside is the only cut on the piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 25cm it is small enough to keep on a desk or a shelf, read close and worth handling. It needs light to get into it, so a spot near a window or a lamp does far more for it than a shaded shelf, where it becomes a dark red lump. It stands on its own flat and needs nothing under it, though a pale surface beneath will bounce light up into the body and show the inclusions from below.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Inclusions, the Red, and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOrdinarily a standard piece needs 3–4 weeks and a bespoke commission 5–6. The inclusions are run heavier or nearly clear, the red is taken toward orange, and the mass is cast at other sizes. The inclusions are also run heavier for a denser interior or nearly out for a clear one, which is the change that most alters the piece, and the mass is cast at other heights. A frosted finish is offered and removes the whole effect, since the interior is read through the surface. It ships as one item resting on its flat, and it can be carried in one hand. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA mass clouded from the inside belongs with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; red resin fractured within leads to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and a piece to hold up to the light joins 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\u003e25cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast Red Resin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54070798418267,"sku":"X282","price":1822.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/X282.jpg?v=1790959404","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/red-clouded-inclusion-mass-resin-sculpture-25cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
