Spanish term

el vaciado escultórico crudo

Spanish to English Art/Literary Art, Arts & Crafts, Painting
This is a description of a work by a contemporary artist from Argentina

Este jinete, en realidad una suma de moldes logrados mediante el vaciado escultórico crudo, y que divertidamente vestía una media blanca deportiva, sorprendía por la unión de referencias presentes, desde la estética de lo cotidiano tan propia de los artistas argentinos de su generación, a las más directas de la escultura pública, y principalmente al cine de terror.

I think it means that the work was made using a series of lost-wax casts... not sure what the "crudo" refers to


Thanks

@crudo I believe "crudo" in this case means rough or "in the raw",meaning the casts were not refined or finished but left as is.

[the sum of molds] from the casting of a raw sculpture

I asked an American sculptor who sculpts faces for horror movies in Hollywood, and this is what he said.
