Maker's statement

The piece is a new version of the Aqua-Poesy series which have been the most successful outlet of my work so far. Some pieces in this series have entered major collections in the UK, including the V&A, Birmingham Art Gallery and Goldsmiths company. And I believe the piece is the very best I have ever made in the series alongside of its sister piece. (See letter on Purchase Information File).
