The drawing-in-space quality is what carries this piece: an open cube that reads as a line, weighted against a solid mass, so the whole thing balances lightness against bulk. Weld beads left proud, edges worked with a hammer rather than ground smooth. Sculpture of this kind was made in small numbers by hand and rarely surfaces outside a studio sale.
