Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. There is evidence of some very minor soiling and dust accumulation to the surface of the magnesium. Under close inspection, there are a few scattered, minor surface scuffs and scratches due to the artist's original installation of the work as an in-laid floor piece. Only visible under very close inspection, there are a few pinpoint areas of oxidation and a few scattered pinpoint surface accretions. Framed in artist's frame.
