When material meets material
Mixed media in sculpture means that several substances jointly make up one form. Mixed media fiberglass sculptures for sale at 2,000 to 5,000 euro appeal to anyone who likes combinations of resin, metal, found object and color.

Looking at details
Ask in the description which materials were used and how they are secured. Embedded metal parts can create stress, and textiles react to light. Check dimensions, weight and hanging. A location with even light, away from the radiator, helps the joints stay stable for a long time. With so many ingredients, close-up photos are helpful for judging the workmanship.
