Dimensions
59 x 34 x 18

A small plaster figure of a little girl stands inside an old clock case which has been lined with mirrors screen printed with images of the foliage of Araucaria Araucana (monkey puzzle tree) The little girl is me and the piece recalls my childhood fascination with a huge monkey puzzle tree which was in a garden near my home.
