As the main concept is these layering of places/pottery traditions Venezuela-UK the work that combines both clays, half made with clay from El Cercado and half with black UK clay is very important, its the second in the first line.
And this presence of black and orange makes the booth work by contrast as if we do everything terracotta that would be too flat and too uniform.
The same interplay of black and terracotta of the main sculptures will be on the rest of the booth. The biggest work after the 2 totems is the Dama Tabachin, Top right corner, I think we need some medium bigger size like this also because of the higher prices this one can have, and because the black with the fibre palm has been very successful too, same case with the work second row in the middle.
See below: 3 options for the 1 m wall / 2 options for the 1,85 m wall / 2 options for the outside flat works wall
Other points:
-As we only have 2 small walls inside I think we may need a plinth to be able to let the work breathe on those 2 walls and not leave the booth to empty either, as 2 terracotta totems won’t be enough for the 23 square1 plinth
-2 Bases for the new terracota totems as the platforms would look way too bulky because these new works are much bigger,so the bases will be made by the welder as part of the armour in steel and black.
-Shelves, some works are smaller than the shelves for my last show, we need to check and decide on this
-The Outside wall is changeling because I don’t have much flat work, that is why I send 2 proposals one with the Solares I did in the residency (these have been very successful with sales) another with some flat ceramics that include the eyes from our show, I don’t have anything else less than 7 cm
-I do have Frames for all the Solares as I have same works from previous series of the same size and my framer can switch them, they are oak hand made with non Also because the big works produced reflective glass
