4th HuiAn International Stone Carving Symposium, China, 2006 'Bell Form' Grey and Black polished Granite, 8ft x 6ft x 6ft 2006 4th HuiAn International Stone Carving Symposium, China, 2006
Detail of 'Bell Form' Granite Sculpture produced during the symposium. Resonating in tune with the surounding mountainous landscape, this piece also takes its form from the traditional chinese bronze bell, It is raised up on polished granite footstones to provide a sense of levitation. The sprials flow in and out through the granite like vibrations. Upon arrival at the Stone Factory, the first thing to do was to Cut the Granite to provide a flat base to work from. Here we see the main granite block which was 4 x 7 x 4.
