A decorative metal sculpture, crafted mainly from chestnut-hued oxidised steel with flashes of mirror-polished stainless steel, stands on a rusty pedestal amid lush foliage. A gravel path borders the autumn-inspired, vibrant garden with red and yellow plants.

A lush summer garden with green and yellow foliage, tall oxidised steel husks falling away to reveal shiny stainless steel shoots reaching skyward among flowering plants. A curved metal bench sits by a tree, dense hedge and blue sky beyond.

A rust-colored, geometric metal sculpture stands amid lush greenery and flowering plants in a garden, like an ice-crystal frozen in time. This crystalline form narrates the harshness of winter among allium blooms, shrubs, and ornamental grasses.

A garden of four seasons

A sequence of sculptures to tell the tale of changing seasons. The collection was tailored specifically to a newly created garden room hidden within magnificent and extensive grounds. The majority of each piece is made from chestnut-hued oxidised steel with flashes of mirror-polished stainless steel which enabled us to create the series within budget, and the chestnut-hue of the metal was a natural fit with the surroundings.

Winter

This crystalline form, like an ice-crystal frozen in time, narrates the harshness of winter. A concertina of oxidised steel is interrupted with shards of stainless steel to offer flashes of pale sky and passing clouds; light relief from the frigid dormancy of the garden in winter.

Spring

Shaped like a single seed, spring represents the potential for growth. The embryonic leaf waiting for spring rain.

Summer

Oxidised steel husks fall away to reveal a new, shiny stainless steel shoot reaching skyward towards the sun.

Summer, a tall, rust-colored metal sculpture made from oxidised steel husks stands on a matching pedestal among summer greenery and white flowers, revealing a new shiny stainless steel shoot reaching skyward towards the sun under a partly cloudy sky.

Autumn

Inspired by Steel Breeze, the autumn stage of the story talks to the latter half of the season, after the harvest. When hundreds of reflective puddles form in the divots of the fields and the whispers of first frosts begin.
