An edition of five cast aluminium figures on an unglazed press moulded terracotta base.
The figure is cast in aluminium from a clay original and fettled (a process of filing to remove the seams left by the casting process) by hand. The figure is drilled and tapped with a screw thread to allow it to be fixed to the base.
If you look in the picture gallery (thumbnails beneath the main picture above) you will see that each base is unique and slightly different – look at the image showing all five units of the edition. This is intentional and an integral part of the press moulding process.
At under £200 this qualifies as part of #artistsupportpledge whereby I pledge to buy another artists work worth up to £200 for every £1000 worth of art that I sell.
There are 3 versions of these figures on a base, each edition is of 5. So far 2 versions are available (with terracotta base and with verdigris glazed base) and the third version will appear here in due course. All details here are for the purchase of one of these units.
