VORTEX IV AT ROCHESTER CATHEDRAL
(Figurative and Abstract Sculpture)
Description
The sculpture is part of a series of four. This sculpture is formally related to Fallen IV, Vortex II and Mandorla. It draws from the constructed planar wing form of Fallen 4 but two are brought together vertically making a Vesica Piscis or Mandorla shape. The wing forms are made of welded steel rod clad with corrugated steel. They twist around each other forming a type of conical volute capped with a red sphere on which the modelled terracotta figure stands. The sculpture was placed in the oldest part of the Crypt dating from 1080. Exhibited at Rochester Cathedral.
