Wax to Metal - We Need Shells

Mud and metal at Bronze Age Foundry, London. The waxes are currently being cast inside of ceramic shells - I like how they hang there to dry like chrysalises. Because of the complexity of my sculptures at this scale - a new recipe and approach to ceramic shell casting has needed to be put together. I’ve been working on a series of prints based on things found near to the sculptures final install site, cuttlefish eggs, a mermaid’s glove sponge, and the geology. I’ve become fascinated with mushroom rocks - people keep telling me it’s the water and the wind that weather the bottom faster than the top. But I just keep imagining there’s a rock-eating creature on the south coast - nibbling the base. Leaving the top like someone who refuses to eat their crusts.
