Selfish sculpture

This steel egg is a piece of work that I made entirely for myself.


The egg is another one of mother natures astounding shapes, seeming to convey solidity and softness in equal measures, with perfect simplicity and beauty. However, despite this, to almost everyone this piece is largely meaningless – the turning of the solid stainless billet deserves some credit perhaps, but other than that, it really has no significance at all.


However, my surname is Steel, and I am soon to be blessed with my first child, and for that alone this is possibly the most personally significant piece I've ever created.....it represents my unborn son in his womb.

It will feature on the website in due course.
