It isn't generally acknowledged the amount of creative and cultural activity that takes place offshore. Many of the workers like Bill are not only accomplished sculptors, but many write novels and poetry, paint, write and play music or are talented photographers.
Although executed in low relief the sculpture captures the complex fragility of the installation, hightened by its isolation in the centre of the field.
