Impossible Job: Hollowing a Complex Sculpture
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 апр 2020
- In order to fire a sculpture in water-based clay, any type of rigid armature embedded in it needs to be removed because as the clay retracts during the drying process (since the armature does not) it would crack and break. It is also better to remove clay from the inside to reduce the risk of explosion during firing. It can be a challenge.

Imagine having the confidence to dig into something so perfect.
Exactly!, it requires such trust in your abilities to sculpt that any damage you might cause can be repaired, very inspiring to see.
yeah...more like courage than confidence.....
@@DutchGrass420 well. He obviously has those abilities as he was able to make it in the first place
That was nerve wracking to watch. Glad it was successful! Another beautiful sculpture!
incredible
Biggggggggggg faaaaaan sirrrrrrrrrr from india
For me, to hollow a sculpture is the most difficult part, I'm always afraid to break it. This sculpture is a masterpiece, really beautiful.
Supports one of my core beliefs: If you make it yourself then you can fix it yourself. Holds true, even for an artist. Wonderful piece!
Great Philippe!! Wonderful masterpiece!! Some sculptors doesn't know how much is hard take off the armature from a sculpture... and specially in a articulate piece like this, you gotta stay really focused!!! I use to do that for make pieces in terracotta... every time is always like a challenge!! You're afraid to lose your sculpture that you made with such a love... long time ago, I lost a sculpture tall 2,15 mt after I took off the entire armature from it... the statue gave way and it fell front of my eyes, I felt so sad, I didn't get in my studio for at least one week, it's almost like you lose a piece of your heart... but I promised to myself that I'm gonna make it again one day!!
The facial expectations. were captured so life like. MASTERPIECE in deed. Respect
You really do need to make a mold of this for wax positives. Or even resin casts. It's a gorgeous piece.
@Yes Sir! What? Are you OK?
@@Declan-pg8cg he did, see the beginning of the video
I really hope to see more... you’re incredibly talented and seeing you work is moving. Thank you for sharing your passion.
This was so painful to watch !!
It’s like watching some sort of grotesque surgery!
I couldn't agree more😫
He made her , she was beautiful , her friend was beautiful, then He killed them by dismembering them . He then removed their bones, and re-patched their bodies ...😢
@@julesgilberto762 That would make a GREAT horror movie tbh....
But in the end, all turned out well. I was certainly holding my breath a few times.
not only is the sculpture itself genuinely unique... The art of digging it out so refined is a true art in itself!
What a stress removing the armature ! Great job, Philippe ! I'm glad it was successful and you didn't ruin it during the process ! What a relief to see you finish !
I can now hold my breath for 7 minutes and 17 seconds.
Hahaha...Same here
right?
Just ordered from your site again. I have studied for years and you suggested water based clays. I have played with it but have no way to fire it. You are an amazingly skilled master. One day after this craziness is over I would like to but you a coffee and visit your studio.
There is truly something very special about your work.
Much joy and peace in watching you maneuver through the cutting and repairs.
The leap of trust in ones self ... no other way is there than to go for it , hats off to you Philippe for sharing that Leap .

Such a beautiful and perfect sculpture, but that was really painful to watch, you are very talented :)
Wow! Just wow!
That's amazing work of hollowing , great lesson
Нет слов..., браво, маестро 👏👏👏
Beautiful!
I keep learning more and more every time I watch you. I have students use newspaper for armature in clay in my high school and burn it out slowly with animal figures before a full fire for vitrification. I am wondering, since many want to try human figures and newspaper has it's limitation if we couldn't use a light wood like balsa for armature and then burn it out like we do with the newspaper. (I have outdoor kilns so fumes are not an issue for my class) I don't know that my students have the fortitude to slice up their pieces and gut them like you have, though I intend to show them this video so they can see.... IT CAN BE DONE! Thank you sir.
Que talentoso increíble WOWO!!!!!!
great job a smart man
Amazing detail
you are so brave!
I almost shed a tear watching this. Great job and awesome sculpture!
Glad you enjoyed it!
