See the dramatic transformation of Igor Ustinov’s models encased as molds that become subjugated to the foundry’s smelting of molten bronze… a fiery process…that occasionally compromises the artist’s work… a process that may take a month and a half… but step by step gets finished… depending on the complexity of the artwork.
See how Igor Ustinov patines a sculpture in bronze, by applying acid to oxidize it, and lighten the color of the bronze sculture.
