Lay Figure, 2012

Brushed brass
20.5 (L) x 14 (l) x 1.5 (H) cm
The anatomical wooden doll used to calculate proportion and which has launched a thousand artists and architects in its time, is here transformed into an icon. Made of solid brass, the figurine is fully articulated and can be posed in any position. An homage, rather than an interpretation, this entry in the on-going Archetypes Series is the first guest creation, designed for range by Hagop Tchatalian, a talented master metal craftsman.
