"Small Footprint"

...by Lendon Scantlebury

This award was produced by Lendon using Jesmonite, though it has the look and weight of bronze.

Production of sculptures using this material is more sustainable and has less impact on the environment.

Jesmonite is less energy intensive to produce, and therefore of a lower carbon footprint.

Jesmonite is considered a low hazard material. The finished composite emits no toxic fumes. The mixing process requires no harmful solvents.
