Overview
We were tasked with creating an over lifesize statue of St. Mark for the Episcopal Cathedral in Down town SLC. We also designed a 3×4 bronze relief of their coat of arms.
Goals
Create a beautiful statue to grace their garden court and to commemorate the Historic Cathedral.
Process
There was constant ongoing communication between the sculptor and The Very Reverent Rick Lawsen, Dean of the Episcopal Church. Several models were submitted and feedback was given through the process to complete the project in time and on budget.
Additional Information
We also participated in the installation of both the statue and the bronze relief. We are also located at Adonis Bronze where we can control the whole casting process from beginning to end.
