The sculpture depicts a character in a golden mask with bolts in his head and keys in his hands, The bolts represent the weight of unanswered questions, while the keys suggest a search for solutions that may never be found.
The sculpture was presented on «Out of your mind» in Erarta Museum of Contemporary Art.
Sculpture production — 5-axis CNC Machining on a tree.
If the Renaissance artist could have traded his hammer and chisel for a computer numerical control (CNC) and the right machine tools, we could have had thousands of statues carved from a host of different materials.
5-axis machining involves using a CNC to move a part or cutting tool along five different axes simultaneously. This enables the machining of very complex parts.
