Basilisk IV - dark

Basilisk IV detail rear


H 300 x W 800 x D 160 mm

Steel sculpture representing the petrification of molten elements - layers of earth that have built up over time, the once liquid form evident but now frozen

The piece has a beautiful dark lustre to it which is achieved through heating and oiling the steel, then finishing it with a clear lacquer

The image is of the rear, showing the welds that hold the sculpture together - and giving an alternative choice to how the artwork is viewed
