Precious Places - Bird, Body & Bone

Walking through the streets of a city, suburb or country town allows a perspective of the culture and place that is not available from a car, bus, train or tram. I find this mode of travel a precious source of inspiration. These works all feature metal components collected on walks. The criteria for collection was that they were metal and had a hole.
