Hello there. I’d like to share with you the process my latest work as this work’s done in ZBrush has made its journey into a 3D print and then a Bronze Statue as the final product (Edition Size: 9 / Approximately 20" x 20" x 24" Weight roughly around 80 lbs / 36 Kilograms of Silicon Bronze)
The piece will be displayed at Thailand National Fine Art Exhibition 2012 in the coming month of February.
The Concept:
The year is 2012, The year of Water Serpent (Water Dragon) where the world shall be blessed with happiness. This piece depicts young maiden in harmony with the auspicious creature. Signifying affluence in wealth and happiness in the harmonious way should human treats nature. (This piece’s actually conceived prior to the huge Flood in Bangkok at the end of last year)
This is one of the first Bronze statues with the use of Himmapan (Asian’s heavenly forest) Theme. The project’s being sponsored in parts by OCAC (Office of Contemporary Art And Culture, Ministry Of Culture ,Thailand), Post Element Co., Ltd–ComputerArts (Thailand), and Comgraph Co. Ltd.
