“Plat Lady" is an extraordinary piece of art that captures the essence of meticulous craftsmanship and dedication. This hand-crafted sculpture of a woman's head stands as a testament to the intricate and labor-intensive process involved in its creation.
The artwork is a marvel, with 23,000 nails meticulously embedded by hand into the structure. Each nail serves as an anchor point for the 10,000 meters of thread that is painstakingly wrapped around them. This meticulous process creates a profound sense of depth and texture, giving the face a lifelike quality that seems to transcend the boundaries of traditional sculpture.
Adding to its complexity, “Plat Lady" contains 150 liters of epoxy resin. This material not only provides structural integrity but also enhances the visual appeal of the sculpture, giving it a sleek and polished finish. The use of epoxy resin contributes significantly to the piece's durability and longevity, ensuring that it remains a timeless work of art.
The creation of “Plat Lady" required an astonishing 1,000 man-hours, highlighting the artist's dedication and commitment to perfection. Every detail, from the placement of each nail to the careful winding of the thread, reflects a deep passion for the craft.
Weighing around 300 kilograms, “Plat Lady" is not just a visual masterpiece but also a substantial physical presence. Its uniqueness is unparalleled, with only one piece available in the entire world. This exclusivity makes “Plat Lady" a coveted addition to any art collection, representing the pinnacle of artistic achievement and human ingenuity.
In essence, “Plat Lady" is more than just a sculpture; it is a celebration of artistry, patience, and innovation. It stands as a singular creation that invites viewers to appreciate the extraordinary effort and skill that went into bringing it to life.

Presentation
Stringometry Art studio was created in 2019 by artist Ben Koracevic after discovering the unusual medium of String Art in a video. Instantly, he was hooked. Always one to find enjoyment in creating and coupled with his vast experience working with various metals, woods, carbon fibre, fibreglass, epoxy resins and fillers, he seized a new challenge to reinvent the world of string art.
This new challenge soon became an obsession that evolved into a love affair over the months that followed. Whilst working a full-time job and completing his Degree in Science in his spare time, Ben somehow found another 30+ hours a week to practice and experiment with different nails and a variety of strings.
Naturally when a passion consumes your life, you want more, so in August of 2019 he made the decision to quit his day job, cash in his life savings and pursue his true calling as an artist. This change empowered him to spend 70+ hours a week in his studio, honing his craft, perfecting techniques and began to create something truly exquisite.
Less than two years later Ben's artwork has been displayed in exhibitions across London and has been received with incredible admiration and respect for the unique nature of his work. Stringometry Art Studio has sold his works across the world in three continents and is committed to support Ben as he pushes the boundaries of this rare art form.
In Ben's words “art is a universal language where the work does all the talking, I hope mine speaks for itself."
