Orrery, central France

Sophie is currently working on a large Orrery for a private estate in central France.  This will be bronze, corten steel, stone and brass.  For the same estate, she has designed a small hermitage to be built from french stone, studded with jewel-like streaky glass windows, and a slumped glass ceiling.  ​Here, she is working on the wax casts of the planets, taken from her originals, which are currently being cast in bronze. The chocolate brown wax can be gently manipulated with warmed metal tools to achieve the perfect finish.  Once cast, the planets will be patinated in rich colours.
