Animated Steel - QR Trail

This was my first fossil style of work. I think it was my architectural background that led me to create this work. Using my knowledge of concrete, I created a piece that used concrete and steel together.

I created an organic steel skeletal form made from discarded components and laid them in a panel of wet concrete. Over the next few days, I, then spent hours jack hammering them out again like an archaeologist revealing a true fossil.

Since 1994, Chris has worked primarily on public artworks. An important intention of these works is to add human qualities of humour and playfulness to public places.
