Effigy & Lorentum

I’ve been thinking about how the life cycle of a sculpture could be treated like a time‑value curve—each stroke or chisel mark accruing value, much like compound interest. How do you feel about that comparison?

I think that’s a beautiful way to look at it—each scrape and curve as a tiny deposit, and the whole piece keeps gaining depth over time. It’s like a sculpture that pays dividends to its own history.

That’s a neat analogy, but remember that depreciation can erode those “dividends.” A sculpture’s value only grows if it’s maintained and protected from wear, just as an investment needs proper reinvestment of returns. Have you thought about the risk of attrition in your model?

Yeah, the wear and tear is the real sting—just like a portfolio that’s left idle. If you forget to care for a piece, it starts to crumble, and that “interest” fades. So the real art is in the maintenance, not just the creation.
