Leaves, patina and rust

 

What is not to celebrate about this smaller sculptural piece (about 60cm wide X 55cm high) - hand formed recycled copper leaves, copper patina and rust on half of an old pulley wheel. See fully assembled piece below with a hard wood base.

The leaves are riveted to the mild steel stalks or stems with copper rivets - yes the stems will rust in the outdoors.


Couple of other process photos on the workbench.


And a photo at the front door in blazing sunlight.

A lovely addition to the Bending Series.
