OLPCO XX
THE FIRST LIMITED EDITION PENGUIN FROM THE PENGUIN
STUDIO.
Individual small concrete sculptures produced for New
Zealand Sculpture on the Shore 2016, a 10 day event supporting Women’s Refuge.
There are 99 in this edition all basically the same,
but each penguin is hand cast, hand fettled and hand painted which gives each
penguin a subtle difference to each other.
Each penguin has a numbered clay tile made and fired
at the Penguin Studio
The penguin is painted in basic gloss black.
It has a red and black mottled beak with a black
separation line.
The eyes have white sclera with black pupils.
There is a white double X (the female chromosome)
motif on the chest.
The tile has been painted black with red detail.
