Clasp

Awarded the “City of Stonington and Bank of Melbourne Award” at the Toorak Village Sculpture Exhibition 2013.

The Clasp takes inspiration from shapes found in jewelry. Made from corten steel with a natural rusted finish the sculpture stands 2.4 meters tall as pictured.

The Clasp is a unique sculpture that is personally introspective and representative of family and objects. Objects that are tied to the family circle and remembrance of family members that have passed.

Clasp is a representation of a precious object, a gift, a bequest or a treasure. Like the function of a well-made clasp the sculpture is robust in appearance yet signifies the delicate nature of a clasp that may connect the most fragile of chains, hold your hair delicately in place or pin a treasure to your lapel.
