How it is made

Steel first, then green.

Three of the six stages every piece goes through. The frame is the sculpture; everything after it is surface.

  1. The same rabbit as a bare welded steel wire armature, weld points marked02Steel rod, bent and weldedSteel rod bent by hand and welded into a cage that carries the pose. Anything over six feet also gets steel tubing run inside it.
  2. The rabbit frame lowered on a hook into a bath of molten zinc for hot-dip galvanizing03Galvanized, welds includedGalvanized over every surface including the welds, which is exactly where outdoor steel fails first.
  3. Hands packing long-fiber sphagnum moss into the rabbit frame, half filled04Sphagnum packed by handLong-fiber sphagnum packed into the cage by hand and bound down, so the piece is green the day it arrives.

The full sequence: drawing, welding, galvanizing, mossing, planting and installation: is set out step by step in how a topiary form is made.
