‘gateway to africa’ sculpture...

 
 

                         Project manager and assistant artist to african sculptor El Anatsui, 2004....

Working with approximately 100 year old greenheart and gum timber reclaimed from the fire of the wharf in Falmouth docks. The trees from which the timber came, grew in africa, therefore making the wood possibly 200 years old or more. Fittingly used in the african section of the hot biome at Eden.

                        Due to the tough, wet jungle environment of the biome, the sculpture has been refurbished once or twice...
