concrete drawing update

the concrete drawings have been completed and ready and waiting for over a month now.


they are wrapped up in the warehouse awaiting the go ahead for the install.
 

this was supposed to be mid May but the project has been delayed - but it looks like we might begin the install next week.
 

in the meantime we have had some glass sheets laminated.
 

you can see the 3 layers of glass and the 2 layers of laminate in this cross-section.
 

although small these units are precious, costing almost $1000 each! just to make. then we carefully shaped each one to fit inside the bronze buckets. this laminated glass will become the "water" in the bronze buckets sitting on the "water" concrete drawings.
 

we have also had this tall sculptural "ladder" unit made. 
 

it has been powder coated, and will be installed with the concrete drawing and a bucket with glass water on top.

not long now.
