Sand

July 21st 2007

The new piece is done! Woo! This one really took more time than I planned on but it was worth it. I spent a little bit of time on the planning of this piece but found the labor part was much more work than I thought it was going to be. I’m working on the video at the moment, which will explain the goodbye art thing a bit more clearly.

((   just got the video up, cut and paste this, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v5anMHmYonk     ))

So in the picture below you can see that the image looks in no way like sand. But I told you it was sand from the title of this blog. Well here is the explanation, which if you catch the video in the next day or so will make a lot more sense. So I used layers of foam as blocking, then I poured sand around the foam and then I shot an x-ray of it. The image you see below is an x-ray of sand, you can see little chunks of rock in the sand in the close up.

The “blocking” of the image took quite a while. I had to sketch the picture then divide it into the appropriate shades. Then I had to use an exacto blade for four hours to get it all cut correctly. I then filled around the foam with sand and took it to where I can get an x-ray of it. This picture was shot at about 4am. I am beyond exhausted because I got about 4 hours of sleep and then kept going all day long today.

So as usual this piece is available as a photographic print that will be signed through the 28th of July 2007.

Hope all is well. I will post the link to the video up here once I get it. This piece is a bit of a departure from my other work, that is going to continue to be the aim of this project. Oh, I’m actually going to be in San Francisco next weekend, so my project will be made there, so give me a couple extra days to get the piece up on here. Thanks all! Next week will actually be the last week of “Nature” and then I think I am moving on to “fire” but I’ll make that decision next week.
