Title: Whispers of Steel

Artist: Justin Stockbridge, New Zealand

Description:

“Whispers of Steel” is a captivating sculpture by esteemed New Zealand artisan Justin Stockbridge. This piece features a large reed, expertly crafted from solid steel wire, capturing the graceful movement of grass swaying in the wind. The steel wire construction offers both strength and fluidity, mimicking the natural elegance of reeds found in the wild.

Adding a touch of whimsy and surprise, a small, intricately detailed butterfly is delicately perched among the reeds. This playful element brings a sense of life and wonder to the sculpture, inviting viewers to look closer and appreciate the subtle beauty within the piece.

Designed to be both sturdy and elegant, “Whispers of Steel” can be displayed indoors or outdoors, enhancing any space with its blend of natural inspiration and artistic craftsmanship. The reed’s flowing lines and the butterfly’s delicate form demonstrate Stockbridge’s remarkable ability to infuse metal with a sense of lightness and movement.

Justin Stockbridge’s work is renowned for its superior construction and attention to detail, and “Whispers of Steel” is no exception. This sculpture is a testament to his skill in transforming raw materials into art that evokes the beauty and grace of nature, immortalised in steel.

Standing over 50cm high with a 60cm approx fan, this piece takes up a good space. Please allow 5-10 days for construction.
