"Jim Bond’s sculpture “Blown Away” in copper and steel is a beautifully constructed and lyrical piece on an intimate scale. The steel framework of the figure is skilfully modelled, caught in a moment where it begins to disintegrate in response to an unseen force. Copper plates that clad the figure like an exoskeleton are suspended as they fly away in a trail behind the male figure with his head bowed, bracing himself against a mighty wind. Wires attached to the figure move on approach, gently animating the work."
