Ceramic Sculpture

Boy With Asymmetrical Ears is a limmited edition sculpture. The sculpture is cast with slip (liquid clay) into a mould. Once it is released from the mould it dries for a couple of days and small corrections are made. Then it is stacked in a ceramics oven which is fired to 980 degrees celsius.
The first batch of five is painted with acrylics.
