Shayno is an unwritten name for some local land - nobody seems to know why it is so callled. Walking one day I found an incredible piece of rotten wood which formed the basis of this sculpture, requiring an immense amount of intervention with resins, hardeners and bodyfiller to make it castable. Casting bronze in sand moulds requires a robust pattern which does not stand as a sculpture in it's own right but can be used time and time again if it stands up to the rigour of the foundry. It has also inspired two larger pieces with a similar form. The sweeping form of polished bronze sharply contrasts with the texture behind it, a faithful reminder of what was there. It stands on a very simple oxidised brass base.
