About

In Kazan, bronze sculptures from Burkina Faso are on display - and each one exists as a unique piece. This is how the "lost wax" technique works: first, a wax model is sculpted, covered in clay, and fired. The wax melts away, leaving a cavity that is filled with bronze - and the clay shell is then broken. It is impossible to replicate the result exactly. This is how the masters of Burkina Faso have worked since the 15th century, passing down the craft within family dynasties. Thirty-four contemporary sculptors have presented animals, plants, everyday scenes, and portraits of rulers from various ethnic groups - Mossi, Bobo, Lobi. The exhibition also features videos about the creation process and tells about the country itself. Where to go with children in Kazan can be found on KudaGo.
