Volumetric sculpture made of rolled sheet steel with an inner core of softer copper sheet. The outer form is both nautical and seed-like, the inner a more architectural yoke, creating a negative socket shape. Explores ideas of metamorphosis, positive and negative, artificial and natural. Suitable for interior siting.
