We Are One

Year: 2022
To complete this Mongolian inspired sculpture in 2 weeks for Robert Comstock I began with TIG welded steel for the base and stand. For the headdress I TIG welded electroplated copper wings around a TIG welded steel hollow box construction for the face. Using a copper electroplated 3d printed bird I was able to restructure the head into an eagle and added deer antlers to finish the look.

​The woman's face on the steel circular form is made from steel rod annealed and shaped then TIG welded into place. For mounting the headdress I TIG welding the copper wings into place and for the eagles head I TIG welding it into a circle construction of steel wire that also completed the face. I was able to include some vintage wood pieces, cut and routed, then place on the top of the pillar to create the transition from pillar to headdress.
