Under and Over II & IV

Ellis O' Connell
Sculpture
Bronze
2000

Canary wharf
London E14 5AJ
Tube Canary Wharf; DLR Canary Wharf

Owner Canary Wharf Plc

Originally produced in birchwood, resin and plaster these sculptures are now realised in bronze for Canary Wharf. Each work creates a sense of an enclosure or the impression of a garment which appears to have been recently vacated. The forms reflect the pliable nature of the original wooden sheets which O’Connell dampens and then bends into shape, clamping them into position to dry. Her chosen materials are diverse, their unique qualities being either exploited or disguised. Her attention to surface detail has been meticulously translated into the carefully worked patina of the bronze.
