The Mediation, Dimensions: 24" x 18"
Cast resin with pigment, second of a limited edition cast, where each cast is uniquely tinted and manipulated and/or in very different materials.

This artwork has its origin story told in the description of my bas relief sculpture "Three Angels". I find as I make casts from this work now, two years later, I have new stories. Two figures are face to face, and the center figure stands back, clearly less involved. Perhaps she is a mediator in this dispute? The figures evoke the Greek myth of Persephone and Hades, with a representative of Demeter as the center figure. There are so many possible stories here.

This version of "The Mediation" is the second cast from a silicone mold. It is very different from the first heavy plaster cast. This is clear resin, which gives a very different result! I rubbed selected opaque pigments into the mold before pouring the resin, then completed the work after I removed this piece from the mold.

Note that I do every step of the mold and cast making myself, using my own original works.
