Solid Bronze, ~3 lbs
Over the summer, Julianne Moore, a collector of my work (yay!), made some beautiful pottery which I immediately wanted to see cast in bronze. The result were these gorgeous golden copper hunky objects which made me think about what a better use of bronze and copper to make artworks instead of bullets, especially given the copper-headed beauty Julianne Moore’s work in support of the mission to end gun violence.
We teamed up to create an edition of 100 of one of her ceramic works cast in bronze in support of this mission. This includes gun safety legislation and initiatives to reduce gun violence through the education of policymakers, the public, and the media and organizing communities in support of gun safety. 100% of net proceeds go to this mission.
The idea developed over the fall and we are doing our best to make some available for the holidays. They are all made by hand here in Southern California using the sand-casting process, and each piece also requires hours of polishing. They vary due to the nature of sand casting and may have different black nooks and crags which I hope you enjoy, as it shows the hand of the maker and the process. Each bowl is signed and numbered. They are not food safe.
Please email me at nancy@nancypearce.com if you need expedited or international shipping.
The bowls are sold out. Thank you for the support! Please sign up on the mailing list to be notified about future pieces.
