Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. The surface has oxidized naturally, inherent to the artist's chosen medium and there are a few small scratches and losses to the patina, most notably on the top linear portion of the balancing element. There are several spot accretions visible on the twisted element. Please note this sculpture is kinetic.
