Story Sculpture
This story Sculpture is dedicated to my mother, she was my inspiration for this project.
I love Tim Burton movies and I love Halloween! Through this sculpture I am telling a story of a woman who never had her wedding. Like the movie, the girl was more than ready to get married, but due to certain circumstances in life, the wedding never happened, it got canceled. The girl was heart broken for years, and as she grow older, her dream of having her wedding died off. She eventually married but never had a wedding, she locked the forbidden dream away and buried it deep in her memories. The once bride shall forever wait at the alter with empty hopes.
This project I created a bride on top of a wedding cake. The cake was very easy to make but the bride was a bit challenging. the most challenging part of the bride was the face, its not exactly how I wanted it but it's very close. I did create an alter out of clay and i loved it! But it was so delicate that it broke, so I decided to make it out of another material. Once this piece is fired and glazed, I will put a piece of fabric on the bride to simulate the veil.
