"Contra Pasta"This Life size ceramic figure was built based on the smaller version below, which is now embedded in a large block of sand cast glass. The unfired sculpture was modeled on an armature with a rod sticking out the back, and when dry I held it sightly floating in a box shaped sand mold and had 3 large ladles of molten glass poured around it. The dry clay started popping beneath the molten glass and blowing big glass bubbles which were popped with a blow torch as any little moisture was trying to escape the clay. This was one of the most exciting sand-casting experiments, and one that required a great deal of cold working afterward.
