A delicate, forked and organic looking sculpture is covered in scales. The material is reused HDPE and these scales are outlined with shades of hand dyed cotton threads in peach hues. These scales are pinned into place creating a robust structure belying its translucent delicacy. This can be understood when you look down into the arms of the piece and see the filigree network of pins inside.
