Leaf Vessel
2010-2011
Sculpture by the Sea, Sydney 2010 and Cottesloe, Perth 2011.
The Vessel is a symbol of hope and migration.
Within the work the structural spear alludes to strength and protection. As a Distinguished Invited Artist, Leaf Vessel was also exhibited at Sculpture by the Sea, Bondi 2010.
A recurrent theme in my work, the vessel is a symbol of migration and life’s journey. The work can be interpreted in several different ways; seed pod, chalice and vessel.
