DORSET (2017)
Approximately 5cm x 30cm x 50cm
Named after it's birthplace, Dorset was my very first attempt at pouring iron directly onto wood and was created with iron poured from 'The Rhino', a furnace built by a group of Sculpture Graduates formally known as DWPD, now under a new title as company molTÂN, which took place at Stephen Coles workshop in Dorset on 1st July 2017.
The wood used for Dorset was a slab of oak intended for firewood, which I charred then took a mould of using silca sand and a fast-setting binding agent. I then released the wood from the mould and carved away part of it, before returning it to the mould and then filled the void with molten Iron.
