Lola

 limited edition  13/30   

Maltese

When i was making the series of the bicycle chains dogs, i was looking for a new technic for each dog i make, and a new  brand. Lola is the loveble and loved dog of my  sister, Inbal. , she is a Maltes , i am not sure a pedigree, but this is not important to me. lola is already 15 years of old( wish her long lasting life).she is my perfact model. So, because lola has an uncombed hair, i decided to use stif, rusted bicycle chains, which was not easy to find. I had to expand the area of the bycicle repairs shops, that i was collecting their "garbage". I took some pictures of my model  and made her, starting with, a metal stucture, covered with net and with  a thick kind of cement material , that will have the strength to hold the rusted chains. I always start with the head. I need to see that the dog is looking at me, and than i can go on with the rest of the body. I usually love all my "children", my creations, but definitly Lola is one of my favorits dogs.
