"Walking Mann. I", 2020
During lockdown 2020 I decided to create a series of seven sculptures representing the feelings and actions taken during this uncertain time at home. The "Mann." series was entirely made from Greyboard (board and paper made from 100% recycled materials) and Cyanoacrylate (adhesive) with each piece becoming more structurally sound despite the progressive complexity of the design.
This slightly smaller version of the first outlet sculpture titled "2020", which depicts the feeling of life right at the beginning of London's halt as the COVID-19 virus spread across the city, is the first of two post-series sculptures and the only available for purchase that capture the motifs, materials and style of this small collection of figures.
Unlike the "Mann." series, this figure is finished with five layers of acrylic paint and sits on a wooden base protected by a thin layer of wax and stands on three rubber feet. A hand-made glass dome completes the piece, as well as providing protection, to create a stunning and thought-provoking item that would fit perfectly on any surface such as a bookshelf, on top of a piano or even a coffee table.
Please note that although the base is finished by myself, the glass dome has been hand-made by a third-party and may have slight maker's marks such as scratches or air bubbles present and thus the dome itself is complementary and free of charge. All efforts are made to select only the best dome though no guarantee can be made that the aforementioned marks will not be present. Please ensure you understand this before purchasing.
This item is not a toy and is solely for display purposes.
A hand-written message can be added to the base upon order confirmation. Should a personalised message be applied, this item will not be refundable unless damaged upon arrival as per the shop policy.
