Gate of Faith - Epilogue - Part Two

Okay, it wasnt QUITE finished....The stand has been added and courtesy of Can Fab Powder Coating, Fyshwick, received a coat of clear paint. This clear coating offers durability over time, makes it easier to keep clean and free of dust, and makes it shinier !

Super shiny in the sunlight....

The stand keeps the Gate much more stable....

The polishing is Georges unconventional style.

Columns - Beginnings

First job is making the two columns, the start of the project...

George first made his Infinity in 2001 (pictures below in blog). Now 2010, sees the reinvention of Brancusi column in a new size and function.

In Georges hands, Infinity will look different.

Brancusi Reinvented 2010

As part of our travels in January 2009, one of the highlights was travelling to Tg Jiu, Romania. The purpose of this trip was to see the wonderful work done by Romanian artist Constantin Brancusi. To see in person the "Endless Column" was indeed exciting.

Brancusi is the inspiration for much of George's work, and The Endless Column is going to be further reinvented by George, as you shall see in further posts.
