The Sky is Grey Sculpture - Limited Edition of 10

During the UK’s first lockdown I spent much of my time experimenting with electroforming, an electro chemical process similar to electroplating that dates from the 19th century and was originally used to produce printing plates. THE SKY IS GREY is one of the first pieces I constructed using this process. Although complex and time consuming one of the delights of the technique is discovering the huge variation in the texture and colour of metal that can be produced often in pleasingly unpredictable ways. The sculpture seemed to reflect that unpredictability and didn’t quite turn out quite as I had imagined. I am however very happy with the result. I think there’s there’s something quite classical and rather enigmatic about her. Is she contemporary or ancient? I can almost imagine her being hauled up from the deep sea, a relic from antiquity. It’s also not clear if she’s in a state of decay or growth. In any event she seems to be content looking at the sky. On the autumn day I finished her I was listening to the Mamas and the Papas which is why I know for a fact that the sky is grey. She is the first of what will be a varied limited edition of 10.
