I will be introducing a number of new pieces including the new Deceiver bench. This bench is presented in a classic blue over white combination. The white part is a sculptural casing of concrete and the blue part is a pigmented Ash. The bench is 72” long and can be customized in an almost endless combination of colors. I can also make the bench with a cast concrete seat so that it can go outdoors without concern.
I thought it would be fun to show the casting emerging from the form. The form is comprised of an inner and an outer shell.
The result is a casting that weighs a fraction of what a solid version would weigh!
