I have made a base for Poly-means many that will sit inside the steel legs. Except I’m going to have to modify the corners, because they won’t fit. They are too tall. Art, for me is the process, and learning. I have helped build and rehab many houses, so you’d think I would get that “measure twice” rule of carpenters. However, problems and glitches sometimes lead to new ideas. Anyway, most of the topography is made of scraps of plywood. I will insert some pieces of plate glass in some of the gaps. Some are holes, or ruts, like to map of my life. The red wood dye is a Briwax product. I will continue to add more dye to make some areas dark. Because some of the plywood had a hard finish, it barely takes the dye, and other areas are various shades.
I’ve been experimenting with Poly-means many for awhile. Here are three elements I’m thinking about. The base will be a topography of plywood pieces, dyed red like the small one in the corner. There will be glass elements. Here is a model from foam core for the stacked glass ziggeraut. I know that is not the usual spelling. The third image is cut glass pieces that may find a place in this sculpture.
