This sculpture was by far the most demanding. The clay version was sent to the refinery after months of work, only to receive a phone call a few months later saying that the clay had been too dry and the wax model was a mess.

As you can see, I have repaired it and sent it back. It has been as difficult to make as the book.

The idea behind the book and sculpture was to make a bridge between 'art' as in painting, and writing. Buying a first edition book never reaches the same prestige levels as buying an original lithograph. By using the internet to allow my books to be downloaded, while a limited edition of paperbacks are made, I create this effect.
