SPIRITUS WHITE

Spiritus
Britannia silver
H 195mm x W 265mm x D 240mm
2010

Spiritus was created as my showpiece for the Mindful of Silver exhibition for the Goldsmiths’ Company in 2011. The inspiration for this piece came from observing how plant life get their sustenance from the sun and reach out and respond to its energy.

Fold forming was the key technique that I used in shaping the silver, the aim being to try and capture the energy of life that comes from the sun and the energy that is fully on display in the natural world.

This piece is now part of the permanent collection of the Goldsmiths’ Company.
