Sculptures that move
Inspired by birds, custard, quill pens and conscientious objectors, the children's rhyme "Cowardy, cowardy custard" and the saying "The pen is mightier than the sword".
Bird's Custard
Flying Saucers
Bell Bird
They Are Watching You
Heron
Tiny Maria
Maria
Maria began in 1981 and followed me around for many years. In 2012 she became a Mobile Metropolis Garden and won the Lambeth Country Show's Recycled Garden Competition. Maria is now in the attic, but the retro shopping trolley is still in use for shopping.
A musical automaton I made in the 'Moving Sculpture Automata and Puppets' course at Morley College.
