## About Bronze Casting Workshops (Lost-Wax Technique)

For us, bronze casting is not just about making art - it’s a way to connect with something deeper. Every piece we create is a mix of tradition, patience, and a bit of faith. If you’ve ever wanted to try your hand at Chola bronze sculpture making, this is your chance.

### What Happens in the Workshop

We walk you through the full journey, from wax to finished bronze. You’ll get your hands dirty with our traditional wax blend, shape your own model, and see how the lost-wax casting process works. The steps are simple but need focus:

- Wax modeling (bee’s wax, resin, oil)
- Layering clay for the mold
- Melting out the wax (the “lost” part)
- Pouring molten bronze or Panchaloha
- Breaking the mold, then chiseling and polishing

You’ll learn how to create a sacred icon in the South Indian sculpture techniques style, and finish it with your own touch. The process is slow, sometimes messy, but that’s part of the magic.

### Who Should Join

Anyone curious about art, heritage, or spirituality. Doesn’t matter if you’re a student, pro, or just want to make something for your pooja room.

### Where We Teach

We run workshops in Kumbakonam and Bangalore. Both places have their own vibe, but the spirit is the same.
