As always when a project after a long time of working comes to its end we feel pleasure and sadness at the same time. Now that the Colosseum is finished its time to open the view to further projects.
Lets wait for while and see
what Dieter is planing next…
Today Dieter shows us for the last time the inner construction of the Colosseum. After that he will fix it on the wooden base to prepare the object for the final photo shooting. Meanwhile Malgorzata glues the last cork block where it belongs
…
After fixing the capitals Dieter and Malgorzata are going to mix the natural pigments they got from Roussillon
in south of France. This technique was born in the 18th century and gives the cork a warm and smooth surface.
On the facade of the Colosseum we find Doric, Ionic and Corinthian columns. Dieter first produces silicon moulds of them all….
After the drying process he will be able to pour the negative in further stepps…
