...aluminum castings done in 2004...





These pieces were poured in the backyard of the Zeitgeist Gallery in Detroit which I ran from 2001-2009. They are gypsy/poured with propane and a kiln made from a 55 gallon drum. It is the lost foam proces where the image is carved out of styrofoam and imbeded sometimes with metal and packed in sand. The hot metal is then poured into the styrofoam which burns out and the raw metal is then cooled and finished...

...more slates painted this year...
