Once the rubber is cured it is covered in plaster, forming a sort of exoskeleton.The rubber and plaster are removed in pieces; after they are re-assembled there is a hollow negative space in the shape of the sculpture. The sculpture can then be cast in bronze or re-composited stone. |
There is a special relationship in the creation of a memorial sculpture. The artist and patron work together to create a lasting memory that honors the identities of those who have contributed to our lives. The sculpture can be created from a special photograph or from the combinations of several photos with stories and memories of the individual. A memorial can take the form of a relief as seen here as well as a plaque or free-standing sculpture. |
