Description
Sculptor Paul Bowden’s reflections on the spider (male and female), coexisting on the precarious web, takes on a wider significance. Ominously suspended over a narrow corridor, the web and its occupants suggest unease and dis-ease, an ecological imbalance; perhaps, even, a world gone wrong.
