Located on beautiful Waiheke Island, near Auckland,  Bodyscape is the studio of sculptor Olivier Duhamel.  Address: 49 church bay road, Oneroa, Waiheke Island Phone 09 372 7220   The procedure consists of first making a mould directly on the body. This mould is then used to cast a positive reproduction. If carefully done by a skilled artist, the result is an elegant and highly realistic sculpture. It can be made from almost any part of the body: face, bust, torso, hands, back,  neck and cleavage, bum, pregnant belly... even your entire body. It can also include elements of clothing, hair and accessories.

 

A casting of your bust will capture your feminine curves in glorious details. Immortalise a part of yourself  in a  personal, original and sensuous sculpture of your own body. (more ideas on what can be done with body casting.)

How long does it take? Typically less than an hour of your time is needed. The print itself takes about 30 minutes. You then have a shower to clean alginate and plaster drips and you are free to go, or to stay on and watch me cast the plaster if you wish. The finished cast itself will be ready a few days later. See here a step by step description of the process.
