Image of a conjoined couple. Originally slipcast ceramic used as a one off mould. Now pewter only, as the ceramic was smashed off. Patination fluid simply dripped over the figures

COUPLED

The casting process destroys the ceramics figurine and reveals a pewter ‘shadow’ of what was once there. The features and details blur and soften like worn statues found in public spaces. The patination is then dripped over the piece and allowed to flow along the contours.
