Ecorche -- literally, flayed, is a sculpture technique depicting the human figure's musculature. We build the figure from the skeleton and attach the muscles to it.
I am taking the year long class (and I suspect longer to complete a full figure) at the Art Students League. After two months of work, we have completed the basic truncation of the skull and the first truncations of the torso and pelvic areas. Next week we will start on the bones of the rib cage.
