The assembling of forged and cast metal is the key to Junko MoriÂ’s work, whether mild steel or almost pure silver. Her observations of tree and plant matter are the driving force behind many of her sculptures which vary in scale from small objects in precious metal through to massive welded steel works of art. Presented by the Art Fund and the Esmée Fairbairn Foundation.
