CP KATE - 'French Tart' from the Beyond Baroque collection, an old-world feel rich in patina, with a contemporary twist. This piece contributes to the narrative of Marie Antoinette's "Last Supper". In this case a "fruit" tart fashioned from strawberries. The not so juicy berries are molded from fresh strawberries and then cast in hand-dyed plaster before being added to the tart atop Marie's head. The plaster is dyed a deep charcoal, sealed and finished in museum wax giving the work a bit of lustre.
Please note this piece reflects natural variations and striations in color and lustre due to its handcrafted nature.
Constructed from multiple molds hand cast individually then assembled into a final work and signed with the CP KATE logo. A small peace sign is incorporated into each work as it's a symbol that resonates.
