Hi Folks, Here a few WIP of a new installation called ''FACE A FACE''.
As you can see, it is always a good idea to begin with a good armature!!! For my part it was quite good except for the arms, i could have done them a little bit stronger.
Oh and be careful to wear gloves, concrete can burn yourself....
|
The armature is a mix of wood, styro, wires, screws. |
|
I put a layer of chicken wire to hold the concrete in place. |
|
I covered the entire pieces with regular construction concrete, for about an inch thick. |
|
Don't Look at my face on this one! It seems i have 3 chins... |
|
The installation is complete. |
|
When the sun goes down. |
|
Lovers (who said they where lovers???) can meet in the light between them. |
The Women weight is around 75 pounds while the men is around 100.
I did these pieces in the beginning of the summer. Since then, i did a lot of work in clay, they are fired but not ready to show. But Very soon...
