Trace one sculpture’s life across materials.
Stages
- Clay: fast, reversible decisions.
- Plaster: stabilization, assembly, scaling.
- Wax: fine tuning and feeds.
- Bronze: pour, chase, and patinate.
| Stage | Decision |
|---|---|
| Mold lines | Hide vs. reveal |
| Shell thickness | Balance weight |
| Patina | Color + texture |
Each step adds and subtracts—know what you trade.
The result is not one object but a family of versions.
