Field notes
The navigation separates the project story, fabrication, phase one, future direction, artist, and nominations, giving the effort a clear public-facing sequence. The fabrication section identifies lost-wax casting and discusses bronze through examples from West Africa, the Kingdom of Benin, Spain and North Africa, and American monuments. A linked artist site and project email provide routes for follow-up.
