Two broad facets meet in a soft ridge across the top. One teal holds the whole body, deepening across that shoulder and along the foot. Nothing at all comes under it; the body sits on its own flattened underside.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOne Opening and Nothing Else\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA single opening through a rounded mass is an unforgiving thing to make, because a form with no other detail gives a fault nowhere to sit. The wall around the opening is held to one thickness right round, which is what stops the hole looking punched, and the faceting is soft enough to read as a swelling rather than as a cut. The wall has to close round the opening and meet again without a mark, which is the one thing a cast material must get right here. Matt everywhere, so the body reads as a solid and the opening reads as an absence in it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA desk or a bedside, where it can be turned by hand. The opening will frame whatever stands behind it, so that is worth choosing deliberately. Under soft light it is one teal mass; under a hard light the opening prints a shadow on the surface beside it. From across a room the opening is the only thing that reads, and the faceting is invisible until you are close.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eEnlarging the Opening, and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWork on a bespoke commission runs to 5–6 weeks, on a standard piece to 3–4. The opening is drawn rounder or wider, the teal is taken towards a deeper blue or a truer green, and the surface is brought to a polish. Enlarge the opening and the body is redrawn around it, because the wall has to stay even all the way round. One piece in a fitted crate, packed with the opening supported, and it is set down wherever it is wanted with nothing to do to it. It is moved with the body cradled from beneath, and never by a hand hooked through the opening. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA matt teal body pierced by a single teardrop sits with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/indoor-sculptures\"\u003eindoor sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/contemporary-modern-sculptures\"\u003econtemporary and modern sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e and 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\u003e30cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e31.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e13.2cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMatt Cast Teal Resin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54101068087643,"sku":"H248","price":1754.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/H248.jpg?v=1791979768","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/teal-matt-single-pierced-body-resin-sculpture-32cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
