Working on a new sculpture of little Anouk

Anouk 1_2491photo 5 girls head 3

Anouk came with her parents and siblings to a demonstration that I was doing in handbuilding clay sculpture for the Ottawa Guild of Potters show.  Anouk was working her own magic while I started a sculpture of her.  This is a beginning of the process of working in clay.  I’ll take you through the process as the piece is transformed from wet clay into ceramic.

It consists of 50 ten metre high laser cut steel plates set into the landscape, representing the 50 year anniversary of when and where Nelson Mandela was captured and arrested, on August 6, 1962 prior to his 27 years of incarceration. Standing at a particular point the columns come into focus and the image of Nelson Mandela can be seen.
