Composition with Five Elements Haydn Davies

Haydn Davies
Composition with Five Elements, 1980
Painted aluminum, 244 x 300 x 214 centimetres

Composition with Five Elements developed from a maquette entitled Cromlech.

The original title is derived from the cromlechs (megalithic stone monuments) found in Davies' native Wales and surrounding Britain, the most famous of which is Stonehenge.

An association with these ancient British monuments has been a recurring theme in Davies' sculptures for years, but according to the sculptor this relationship is purely formal.
