Fuurin - Satuma and Sonobe
2024
Medium: Cast Bronze, Indigo-Dyed Thread, and Walnut
Dimension: 10” x 2” x 2”
While I was working on Natsu Mikan, I created smaller windchimes with the same organic burnout method.
Organic burnouts are a type of lost wax casting where, instead of wax, you use organic materials like plants and paper. For these windchimes, I used satsuma oranges and an origami sonobe ball, for their bell-like shape and potential for good sound resonance.
