Bound, Cypress Wood Original, Rope – £3,750
‘Bound’ is part of an ongoing series of work by Ed Elliott, exploring the importance of what it is to be restricted, to realise what it feels like to be free. The figurative form, often carved in a natural material like wood, which has innate movement, meaning it will crack and warp slightly over time, it tightly wrapped or ‘bound’ with a flexible strength. The firm yet subtle bind of the rope, constricting the splitting figure in wood creates an interesting material conversation.
The work has been described as a representation for the plight of Man, from natural beginnings, forced into unnatural habitats and restricted freedom through societal pressures. The symbolic nature of this work can of course inspire many interpretations.
