Project Details

​

The sculpture was digitally sculpted from profiles provided by the artists. then milled in several parts on our CNC 5 Axis milling machine in EPS Foam. After hand finishing each component of the sculpture they were attached to wood framing, then mold and cast in bronze by Harman Sculpture Foundry. The parts were then patinaed and waxed. The artwork was then attached to the building envelope. 

It was essential that the artwork did not interfere with the building vent systems and was designed around the requirements of the consulting engineer and the buildings construction coordinator.
