Unfortunately, as much as i love this piece, i did want it wall mounted originally. I would have loved to have had it support free, attached to the white wall as if pertruding and morphing from the wall itself using industrial sticky pads. I did buy these and was told they would do the trick. However they did not stick to the plaster which is a great shame. It was not the weight so much as the properties of plaster.

Instead, i opted to return to the routes of this term and present the body on a slab to be walked around, observed and looked quite literally 'in to'.

In all honesty, i do like the table, it makes the sculpture appear to me more innocent, like viewing it is fare more about exposure, not just viewing.

Cut by band saw i do see this is a circular project that has reached a conclusion, a body which now, using plaster as a new format is exposed and looked into. The plaster had marbled inside as well to add an idea of layers and slats. Slices of an individual, broken down.
