EROSION II
€1,690.00
The ‘Erosion II‘ Stainless Steel Sculpture, was inspired by aged marine pillars, worn over time by ships lines which I observed during my time at sea.
‘Erosion‘ was selected for the ForM Sculpture Exhibition in the beautiful surroundings of The Walled Garden at Bangor Castle for the month of June this year.
Crafted from Mild Steel, which has been allowed to weather, capturing the passage of time and the effects of exposure.
The feature Stainless Steel elements, spaced along the sculpture, represent where the lines have chafed the pillars over the years, reflecting their timber origins.
These four sections are concave, leaf shaped and cold formed in 2mm marine grade stainless steel, polished to a mirror finish and dressed.
Each leaf is welded along the midrib and veins to achieve a natural, organic appearance.
The polished resilience of the stainless-steel contrasts with the burnt orange of the mild steel both in strength and colour.
Dimensions: 80x80x650mm (lower pillar) – 80x80x900mm (taller pillar) – secured underground.
