Stages of Decay picture frame

Description

Possibly the most macabre item I’ve ever made but my favourite.

This picture frame contains a ‘hand’ sculpted hand in the various stages of decomposition.

The maggots are artificial and glued in place.

The hand is sculpted using Epoxy clay, painted with acrylic paint then sealed with clear lacquer. It is securely glued in place.

The labels are sealed with resin and glued in place.

The backing is aged Hessian fabric.

The frame can be wall mounted or free standing.

The frame measures 25x25cm

The sculpt, layout and paint will vary slightly as this piece is handmade not factory produced.

Thanks for looking xxx
