Description: | Propagation, meaning to multiply or increase is related by this piece in the repetition of spikes. Each spike is individually forged from varying lengths of steel rod, welded together. Deliberately arranged, the overall appearance is reminiscent of an organism, the spikes suggesting a form of defence. The weight of this piece means that it cannot be handled by its spikes or by its central cavity, and so must be lifted with padding to protect the hands. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | beyond the North East craft metal makers contemporary craft | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
