Flying Colours (2008)

500cm high x 200cm wide x 450cm deep.

Welded steel, painted

Suspended sculpture commissioned by Leicester University for their new library. Part of creating something new is to throw away old ideas especially the ones we are most attached to because those tend to stop us from experimenting freely. This scupture makes the point by suggesting crumpled sheets of paper tossed into the air. The imagination does the rest.

The piece is made in five independent sections from different types of steel.
