Positive Destruction and Renewal Hyper Realistic Reconstructed Sculpture #2

 The subject of today's post is the destruction of model #2 otherwise referred to as Young Woman or simply YW.  With a mould and silicone cast in existence of #2 it was no longer necessary to maintain the original clay model.

As had been customary in earlier posts, I wanted to show the destruction of the original  model.  This clay sculpture which was completed in 2011 and moulded in 2012 is still awaiting final finishing in silicone.
Although the images in this post may appear to the viewer to be somewhat grotesque, I really wanted to illustrate how close the skull is to the surface features and by implication how it influences them.

The Renewal aspect will be the creation of a new bust Hyper Realistic Reconstructed Sculpture #8 from the recycled clay and armature of #2.
The next post will focus on the early stages of the clay modelling process for #8. There will be frequent updates of #8(need to give her an acronym or nickname) over the next several weeks with news on other fronts as well.
I will return early next week ,enjoy the rest of your weekend. Cheers!
