GEORGE PARSONAGE MBE (SCOTTISH b.1944)
SINGLE SCULLER MAT “BACK STOPS”
Welded metal, circa 2017, 49 x 106 x 48cm
Artist's Note: Iron and steel welded and melted together to form the boat and the figure. Old nails were among the pieces used for the hands and the gates. Rods for the oars were bought, the “cleaver” type blades welded on and curved by hammer on an anvil. The base is a piece of metal found at the water’s edge. The sculler is raised to give the impression of water flowing underneath.
