I was inspired to make this sculpture by a chance visit to an electrical substation. The huge buzzing electrical transformers filled me with awe. Machines for transformation and production are seen simply as a means to an end, split off from any deeper meaning or connection with the inner lives of men and women. Our only feelings for these steel and concrete behemoths are fear and loathing as they threaten to pollute and destroy our natural environment.
