    Beautiful work, the use rustic raw textures and colours to form rough human shapes is incredible. Also very interesting to hear about the techniques.

    amazing.... i love statues that looks like museum copies. it really achieved the looks that feels historical from a thousand years. looks very expensive,i can build a shrine for each piece if i owned this. amazing artist, very unique. the artist is beautiful.

    Look at the way the little girl went up and hugged the statue. That's how you know the audience really experience the art.

    This helps me with a unique project but just a quick note. "Concrete" is made of cement, water, fine and coarse aggregates, additives. Regardless of how "set up" it is, the mixture is "concrete" or perhaps "grout" (thinner mix). As a civil eng. w/ 30 yrs + working with various mixes, just thought I'd pass that on. We are all learning, which is why I can also say this video DOES help me realize some possibilities for my project!! Good work, and good video :-)

    We have poured mortar mix, but though I would ask what additives you use, or common mix recipe ?
    This is a new idea Andersen Ceramics so we are just learning about techniques and methods.

    I love her work! I wonder what additives she uses to get that plasticity she mentioned?

    • @ximebasa9247
      @ximebasa9247 5 років тому

      she uses liquid polymer and super plasticizer, check the latest video in which she does a demonstration and shows the techniques

    hi, nice, what is the added ingredient that she said makes it more "plastic" ? maybe a plasticizer?..., would like to know because the surfaces are quite seductive.

    Cement and concrete are not interchangeable words. Cement is a powdery substance made of clay and limestone and marl and is what is used to produce concrete, by mixing it with water, sand and gravel. Flour and bread are not the same thing. One is used to make the other.

    Hello Katherine, I'm going to research where I can see your art. I live near Philadephia so that is relitively nearby. I have only trade skills when I do things in concrete and would share my failures and sucsess with you in a heartbeat. What I favor, in my unprofessional study, is to complete by adding and taking away at the proper time to keep the chemical bond strong & continual. The finish is unpredictable but the trowl markings left behind are nice. Fairwell and All Best Wishes! Rick

    In 8000 years from now, her sculptures will remain as a testimate to our culture its achievements. Good for her for working in one of the strongest materials to this date.

    Its a great idea - very expressive - but i see a lot of stone work and that looks a bit like macaroni pictures to me.
    That's the problem i have with sculpting. there's a line drawn in the sand between subtractive and additive sculpting.
    Its something that i think subtractive sculptures are butt hurt about.
    But i totally get why, for example ; If you carved a macaroni picture out of a single block of stone. Not only would it require more time dedication and skill but you would only end up with a colder, duller macaroni picture made from stone.
    If you do additive sculpting you could simply make it form clay over the course of an afternoon or cast it attached to a peace of wood over night. The possibility of colouring it is nonrestrictive, the choice of materials is vast.
    The only thing that stone workers have over there more expressive counterparts when captivating lay audiences is that stone has a label of skill attached to it.
    My point is- This art is nice to look at but i cannot appreciate how its made because it is lazy and chaotic. if it was clay fair enough but when you use stone your saying something more about the artist and it comes across as lies here.-
    But the interesting thing is i only feel that way because the artist uses stone, odd right?
    But in the end the only thing that should concern you is "dose it make you feel feelings?" if it dose then it goes on the fridge. and this dose! so yea!... bit ranty but that's my feelings about it.

    The emotion I feel is disgust when people present something filled with flaws as art. To me art should inspire people those statues do not.

    • @klaudematias1368
      @klaudematias1368 7 років тому +3

      Dusty Stahn reality is filled with flaws, and it takes a developed and nuanced sense of appreciation to recognize the beauty of how artists express those flaws

    • @dustystahn3855
      @dustystahn3855 7 років тому

      Yes flaws exist but to glorify them is disgusting.

    • @klaudematias1368
      @klaudematias1368 7 років тому +1

      Dusty Stahn flaws tell stories. There's so much more than the fact that it is a flaw. All a perfect thing tells is that someone did it exactly as is expected
