Facing


Starting bid: £48

In recent years Viv has developed a method of 'slicing' the alabaster to create stunning pieces that reveal the veining deep within the stone. By slicing and bringing the polish up to a high level (much higher than most sculptors), Viv also exploits the translucent qualities of this extraordinary medium. 

In this video Viv talks about this technique: https://vimeo.com/64901738#.
