Justin, It's forged 1" square mild steel and steel mesh. I sprayed it gold with silver highlights, the rest was finished in satin black. It stands exactly six inches high and to me is a more of a maquette for a much bigger piece (6 feet) than a stand alone work.

I like it. Find a way to project someones face through it(via mirrors?) and it becomes an interactive sculpture. Anyone could become the man behind the iron mask.

really love this piece Ian what did you form the face over? If this is the maquette i would love to see the full size sculpture. in fact if you need assistance i am available!! Have you seen the sculptural face at Bedes World in Jarrow? It is amazing, and i think it is made from fine firescreen mesh. Good work bud. |
