Description
Welded Bronze (Corinth).
Signature engraved at the base.
The life size bronze hand was sculpted first in water based clay – it's partly from life and part and invention
After the modeling was done, the sculpture was molded and wax cast was produced.
The wax was later dissected to three parts, each one being bronzed separately.
Once the casting process was finished, the parts were welded and soldered together – the seams and welding attachments are left visible on the surface of the finished sculpture.
Artist reserve the right to make other casts in any other materials, as well as enlargements or reductions.
Ships in a wooden box (listing weight includes the box weight).

Presentation
Ohad Ben-Ayala, b.1981 .
Lives and works in his studio in Tel-Aviv.
The sculptures presented on this profile reflect a decade of exploring bronze and other non ferrous metals as sculptural materials.
All of the works shown here at the moment were roughed out and modeled first (from nature or an invention) using another material – mostly water based clay or soft bee-wax.
Either way, more than one aspect of each work was always left unfinished, so it could be later resolved in the final metal it was cast in, and thus giving the metal more meaning than just a casting material.
This method was meant to find some middle way between the desire to create a single, unique and individual art piece – and at the same time develop multiple other versions, with all the possibilities offered by casting and re-casting each sculpture in different materials.
Traditional methods of chasing and repousse were combined with electric and pneumatic grinding, polishing, welding and soldering.
Various bronze alloys, aluminum and sometimes brass were cast using both sand casting and lost wax casting methods. With the founder's role limited to pouring the molten metal - Each sculpture is resolved and finished by the artist's own hands.
