Working with Rachel Boyd and Kira Zumkley at the V&A, Factum Foundation recreated the model in a wax with a higher melting point than the original, using colour references to ensure a perfect facsimile for display in the gallery in the summer months, when the original must be relocated to a cooler environment.
