Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. The sculpture rests securely when screwed into a base. There is evidence of light dust accumulation and very minor surface soiling. The tonal variations are consistent with the artist's working method and choice of medium. The welded points appear stable and well intact. The textural and tonal variations to the welded points are also inherent and consistent with the artist's working method and choice of medium.
