About this Item
Notes
This study was made as part of a body of work where Hicks worked in an expressive way. By directly forging in copper he recognised the agency of the material and the perfect tool.
"I was exploring my inner relationship with the feminine values of copper (Venus) as opposed to steel (Mars)"
- Conrad Hicks
