Above them a short neck block rises at one shoulder. Everything is frosted and colourless, so the piece reads as a milky figure caught in one sideways gesture. A block of black stone carries it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOne Sheet Hanging, One Sweeping Out Like a Wing\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe two sheets are worked to opposite jobs: the hanging one is kept upright and close, and the wing is thinned as it sweeps out so it reads as moving rather than heavy. Both faces of each sheet are brought to the same flatness, and their outer edges are kept to a consistent thickness along their whole run. The wing is also where the piece is most easily knocked, so its outer corners are eased slightly, which keeps an edge that survives being handled. The stone is dressed flat and the figure pinned to it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA piece that reads sideways wants a run of surface rather than a corner, so a long console, a low bookcase top or the centre of a dining sideboard suits it better than a plinth. Because the wing reaches well out past the body, leave clear space on that side and nothing directly behind, or the outline closes up. It answers a window well: light from the wing side lifts the sheet bright and leaves the hanging one in shade, which is the reading the shape was cut for.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWing Depth, Colour Through the Body and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom order, a standard piece runs to 3–4 weeks and a bespoke commission to 5–6. Wing depth is open, from these broad sheets to a narrower blade closer to a modelled arm, and the sweep angle is decided at order. Colour can be carried through the body as a grey, a green or a soft amber, and gold or silver leaf can be worked in along the wing edges alone. A full polish is available in place of the frost. Sizes are cut to order. It arrives with the wing cased and the block boxed apart from the figure, assembles by hand on site, and needs two people only because of the spread rather than the weight. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA torso whose arm sweeps out like a wing belongs with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/classic-sculptures\"\u003eclassic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; flat sheets of material in place of limbs lead to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/abstract-sculptures\"\u003eabstract sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and a frosted body on black stone joins 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\u003e44cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e44cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e23cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIncluded\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFrosted Cast Resin with Black Marble\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54017626407259,"sku":"R048","price":2362.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/R048.jpg?v=1791305457","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/white-frosted-winged-shoulder-torso-resin-sculpture-44cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
