HSC&A / IG LIVE
Casa Fage
Friday, February 20 | 9 AM PT / 11 AM CT
Hosted by Hannah Sloan on Instagram.
Join us for an Instagram Live conversation with Casa Fage, the Costa Rica–based sculpture foundry and family-run art space dedicated to preserving the ancient practice of lost-wax bronze casting. Led by Anabelle Hay alongside her children Sarah, Gregory, and Dustin, Casa Fage has become a vital creative hub for artists working across sculpture, restoration, and community-centered art making throughout the region.
This live visit offers a behind-the-scenes look at the day-to-day rhythms of the foundry and studios, providing a closer understanding of how traditional techniques are carried forward through collaboration and experimentation. For artists, curators, and collectors who encounter finished works in galleries and fairs, this conversation creates a deeper connection to the labor and environment that shape sculptural practice.
We’ll discuss Casa Fage’s legacy, their evolving role as a multigenerational art space, and the importance of preserving craft through shared experience and education. Viewers will be guided through the foundry, studios, and surrounding landscape, gaining insight into how place, process, and community continue to inform contemporary sculpture in Costa Rica and beyond.
