Title: Nativity. Year: 2000. Medium: Bogwood with epoxy resin, rock crystal and amethyst, bronze. Dimensions: 72 x 25 x 20 cm
Synopsis:

Table-top sized standing sculpture in bogwood, with two protuberances at the top that are epoxied with amethyst and rock crystal. The sculpture has two discernible indentations on the face that suggest eyes. The angle of the face suggests a burdened mien. The body consists of a number of vertical concave ridges balanced with convex folds to suggest a robe, and the curvature of the midsection of the body suggests a bent weighed-down posture. A coat of epoxy has been applied to the surface to give the sculpture a smooth and polished texture. The sculpture is identified as the fifth piece of an assembled eight-piece 'Nativity' series. The base is bronze.
