The sleek angularity of his freestanding and wall-mounted pieces, crafted from sheets of precious bronze, appear to riff off architecture if anything; the sheer planes and robust angles redolent of 20th century brutalist buildings.
And yet, look again, and there they are, the precipitous cliff faces and rugged escarpments of the famous eucalyptus-hazed ranges west of Sydney.
