"Jim
Bonds 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."
