Bronze casting-lost wax technique

A short animation made for the “Hadrian” Exhibition in the Israel Museum, Jerusalem, December 2015. The film shows the bronze casting process in an artistic yet simple method, a combination of stop motion and 2D animation. The preparation process included a research and a constant dialogue with the curator and the restoration department of the museum as well as a visit in a bronze casting workshop. The head used in the film was a plaster replica of the original Hadrian’s bronze statue found in Tel-Shalem, Israel, 117-138 CE.

Memories of the weight, the look, the feel of that first purchase remain tangible 30 years on and mean owners are reluctant to change. This film is an intimate portrait of the relationship between Barbour and its customers seen through the Customer Services Dept at South Shields who, like surgeons, bring them back to life.
