Balor
‘Balor’ is a piece that may have been a saucepan or a pot originally. The force of the sea crushed its shape, leaving the authentic aluminium to gain a personality of its own as an object of savage beauty. As an artist I do not manipulate the material much tending to enhance and preserve it in its natural form.
I hope appreciators can experience this piece for its rawness and truth.
Size in cm: 49 x 11 x 11
