Background, history, commissioner of the work
This work was completed while on a month-long residency at Edinburgh Sculpture Workshop.
Thematic/contextual information
Like much of my work, this sculpture plays with traditional sculptural forms, in this case the ziggurat. Spliced, reassembled and adorned with colourful suggestions of contemporary Scottish building techniques, the work seems to be at a point of rest, on it's way to the next process.
