This sculpture features 26 smaller lead pieces created from drawings made in Anglesey and Cornwall in the 1950s. Wright would sketch on site before creating larger drawings at his studio, experimenting with grouping figures together on page. This sculpture sees each individual piece form its own position and personality within the concrete matrix.
