Title: Prodigal Father. Year: 2000. Medium: Yew wood, bronze, wood. Dimensions: 63 x 65 x 15 cm
Synopsis:

Table-top sized figurative sculpture made of yew wood, representing two horizontally positioned fused figures locked in a tussle or embrace. Two rounded protrusions on the left side denote two heads but only one pair of legs projects in a V-shape from the right side of the sculpture. Multiple cracks and crevices in the wood have been filled with wood dust and subsequently coated with epoxy to give the wood a smooth, polished texture with a distinctive burled grain. The base is wood. Multiple versions of this sculpture exist.
