Chains

Chains is a sculpture made from a rusty motorbike chain.

The chain is complete and has neither been sectioned nor welded.  The unity is symbolically important : ties between humans, symbolised by each chain link, are not cut and are a form of eternity.  I also like the idea of recycling and the chain which makes the motorbike move forward.

Depending on the imagination of the beholder, one can see a house, a handbag or even a tree...

Chains also represent being locked up, a prison.

There is this duality between solidarity and emprisonment.  The chain of union symbolises universal fraternity for the Free Masons.
