Woman with book – bronze sculpture, gold dress, size 25 cm

Second sorting. Still beautiful, but slightly bent forward in body position.
These elegant bronze sculptures are created by the Burkinabe artist Soré.

Working with bronze is a traditional craft in Burkina Faso. The bronze comes from recycling old fittings, such as taps or parts from air conditioning systems. The artist first creates a wax model, which is covered with a sand mixture of clay and manure and dried. The mould is then fired, and the wax melts and runs out through the holes.

Size: 15-16 cm.
