Description
This sculpture encapsulates hope for the future through the powerful symbolism of a seed; this embodies the promise of a new generation and fresh beginnings. The Kurrajong is an elegant form with subtle curves but harbours a surprising element with delicate and potentially irritating hairs within. Crafted deliberately to capture the seed’s strong contrasting shadows, the sculpture captures the seed’s essence.
This meticulous process transforms the transient symbol of renewal into a timeless testament. Enduring bronze elevates the piece beyond mere transience to merging fragility with lasting hope.
