About the work
Six steel cubes climb from a waisted rust-red pedestal, each balanced on a single corner of the one below and turned a little further, so the column twists as it rises. Brushed stainless catches the sky; Corten anchors it to the ground.
Rowland Melville has made garden sculpture since 2003 and is an expert in metal fabrication, welding and finishing. The balance is exact, a quiet piece of engineering behind an image of things barely holding together, and he also works with clients on custom designs.

At 1.85 m it suits a garden bed, courtyard, entry or waterfront terrace, and the pairing of stainless and Corten sits easily in both modern and natural settings.
