The Vernon Monument was installed in March 2020 at Gun Wharf Quays, Portsmouth. Below is a brief photographic summary of the process.
The half life-size sculpture finished in the studio and temporarily displayed on water to test the effect. The steel supports are temporary structural measures.
The work is scanned and will be enlarged by CNC and 3D prints x 2.5 bringing the final work to approximately 3.5 m H x 5 m wide. From the scan, we take a small 3D print and photograph it for the rendering and visualisations below.
The Vernon committee visit the finished half-life sculpture. The work was then scanned and enlarged to full size. The grid below shows moments from the moulding, casting, assembly and unveiling rehearsal at Morris Singer Foundry.
The finished work is craned into position at the drained pool in Gun Wharf Quays.
The work was unveiled by this wonderful team, pictured here as the pool fills with water.
