This organic looking sculpture sits on a metal plinth. It is half covered in scales and feather like wisps. The material used is HDPE from waste milk bottles. The 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.
