Sculptures from paper by Patty and Allen Eckman

posted in: Art

001Unique works Patty and Allen Eckman. Do not be confused with a papier-mache - this is totally different things. The artists first mix acid-free pulp, use of raw cotton, it is determined to form a vacuum or compressed in the hands. This excess moisture is gradually removed, but the drying process is very long. When the mask is removed from the form, then begin the process of fine-tuning, the most subtle. Some parts are removed, some added, so is very thin the details. This is a very long process that sometimes takes months of work. What it is like the process of casting bronze. Finished product - a white, very light and with a lot of finest details
