Chrysalis

A sheltered state of transitional growth.

Salvaged electrical cables, steel and cement.

180cm h x 80cm w x 80cm w

The public are invited to spin the work on its vertical axis, gently by hand.

Shown here exhibited at Cottesloe Beach, WA, for Sculpture By The Sea, 2020.

Chrysalis at the time represented to me a hopeful vision of what might emerge out of our collective retreating during the global pandemic.

Help from Peter Morris from Stoneyard, Quirindi, to build the plinth, and from Axolotl to coat the sphere in bronze.
