Cachalot

Cachalot. This Cachalot sculpture was created quite accidentally. I was assembling another sculpture in my studio when, while looking for a suitable part, I noticed an old sewing machine casing that had been lying around for a long time. I found another identical casing, and as I looked at the two pieces, an idea began to take shape in my mind. I could already imagine the result of a future sculpture.

All I needed was a little imagination to create this unusual and attractive hybrid of a bathyscaphe and a cachalot. This Cachalot sculpture brings together the shapes of a submarine and a sea creature.

Materials:

  • Body: two sewing machine casings, forming the submarine and sperm whale body.
  • Head: an aluminum cup.
  • Tail: a vacuum cleaner nozzle and part of a bicycle seat.
  • Periscope: a brass shower hose nozzle and a spotlight body with a magnifying glass.

The sculpture is finished with aerosol and acrylic paints.
