Interesting to watch your journey and process... keep on keep'en on. What gauge stainless sheet metal do you create with? do you find it difficult to form?
Its not bad, its temperature range (from solid to liquid) compared to steel is quite small. So you need to start hot then ease back and get out. You do not want to linger.
Yes and yes, Other limitation s can also include size of doorway, high, sharp edges. subject matter. They can make any demands they want. Always pay attention to the details of the "Call"
Great to hear you insights to your process for the origins to this sculpture. Is this typical for creating your sculptures?
My process is not formulaic, but the flow from live model to sketch to 3D and into metal is similar for most of my work.

Depends on the scale of the sculpture typically between 7g - 12g. The sculpture in this video is 7g - 10g aluminum.

Do galleries or any exhibition spaces ever give you a weight limit for your sculptures? especially things that are meant to hang on a wall?
