Answer 1

I can’t see the artwork you mean. Please upload the image or describe it (material, surface texture, whether it looks made from joined objects, hollow metal, rough-hewn stone, or clay-like marks).

How to tell which technique was used:
- Casting: object looks like metal (bronze, etc.), may have a seam or sprue marks from a mold, often hollow or uniformly smooth.
- Assemblage: made from distinct, joined or found objects (bolts, wood pieces, everyday objects attached).
- Carving: subtractive from a solid block (stone, wood); tool chisel/gouge marks, sharp edges, negative spaces.
- Modeling: additive clay/wax-like surface, finger/tool marks, softer forms that could be fired or cast later.

Upload the image or describe it and I’ll pick the best answer (A/B/C/D).
