‘Tank Project’ by He Xiangyu, 2013. This Chinese artist used high-grade vegetable tanned leather as his main material for his tank, creating the outer-coat by using the dimensions and proportions from the measurements scaled with a very insignificant magnification. Xiangyu together with 35 others, completed the Tank Project in about two years, using over 250 full-scale leather hides and 50,000 meters of wax string. The finished piece weighs over 4000 pounds. #objet_d_emotion⁠.⁠.⁠.⁠#valerydemure#jewellery#fashionjewelry#finejewellery#contemporarydesign#jewelry#finejewelry#art#modernart#sculpture#luxury#objetdemotion#handmade#instagood#designerjewellery#fashionjewellery#fineart#jewellerycollector#jewelrycollector#preciousstone#diamonds#silver#abstractart#jewel#jewels#artisan#abstract#craftsmanship#gold
