Turning a 4 TONNE Sculpture

This is a time-lapse showing the process of turning "Parkland" - a reception sculpture conceived from a huge, twisting, fallen oak within the historic landscape of Petworth Park in West Sussex.
Designed for a commercial building in Century City, LA. This substantial commission came through LA/Swiss based architects - Montalba Architects and will be carefully crated, shipped and installed by Mtec Fine Art Handling later in the summer.

Hello Alison. Thank you very much for sharing this amazing KZbin about your wooden sculpture. I am your friend Adrian Spurr's student Joe Monteleone ( deafblind ). He talks a lot about you.

Two words: Gantry Crane. (OK, and chain fall hoist, nylon lifting straps, etc....) Big work requires big tools.

Congratulation! Perfect work, the desk of course, but the action is like a balet. Thank you for sharing!

Good morning 🌅, Alison, excellent work, but I think if you make yourself a pair of A-frame hoist, which have electric winches on them, Using webbing straps pulling on one side it should lift and rotate a lot easier than what you’ve struggled with, I’ve seen a lot of things on KZbin where young people who do Logging use a similar method, over in Canada and USA , if you rap the straps around the item that you want to rotate, then when you’ve got it set up, you pull the ends that you have rap and it will unwind and rotate the item,
