“Commission for Teapot Still Life” by Bouke de Vries
Fall 2022
The sculpture had broken off the base in transport, damaging the central bottom connecting rod and attached butterflies.
OnAim began by carefully detaching the bottom ceramic piece from its acrylic rod and from the central point. A new rod was inserted to connect the central point to the marble base, lifting the sculpture off the base. Once cured, OnAim began adding replacement butterflies using a digital mock-up as a guide.
