An expression of perfect symmetry, a flawless exterior with a nasty bite.  A piece about love and pain.

Part of the transient forms collection

Transient Forms is a collection of mostly smaller objects depicting an exploration and reflection of transfiguration and existence. The cyclical nature of the passage of life and the condition that distinguishes animals and plants from inorganic matter, their capacity for growth, reproduction and continual change. Each form is forged upon a hollow base structure whose overlaying skins of brass or copper have been beaten back to emphasise the skeleton and push the covering material to its physical limits.

The sculpture is supplied with a custom base.

As an artist and sculptor I am interested in the form of a structure, the material and its texture. I work mostly in steel, ferrous and non ferrous metals, combining them to produce various sized structures and forms that convey the chosen subject matter in an exaggerated or morphed fashion. The process in which the sculpture is produced is an important factor for me, the various incarnations a piece may go through before I am satisfied, the resistance of the material, problem solving and experimentation. The way to combine various metals, their physical possibilities and the oxidation and aging process are an on going journey in my work. As a lover of nature my personal work is focused mainly on the natural world and humanities relationship within it. My work aims to illuminate our disconnection from the natural world, the commodification of nature and the impact our species is having on this planet.
