Sculpture

 32cm

I was inspired to make this wire sculpture with a project I did on facial expressions. I researched artists that did wire sculptures ( such as Phill Evans) and got ideas from their works.

75cm of length

I made this lizard with a wire skeleton, which I the wrap in plaster. I used metalic paint to make it look as a metal sculpture. I looked at local artists (such as Cesar Manrrique and Ana Luisa Benitez) that make sculptures about canarian objects, peoples and animals. I got in contact with one of them and was able to go to her own studio where she showed me how she did her sculptures. I the had the idea of making this lizard and the painting it in metalic colours to mimic her sculptures.

 
I made this sculpture by cutting lines out of an old book. I got the inspiration from artist ( for example: Brian Dettmer).
