Con Brio Centrepiece
Organic form, Britannia silver, comprising a domed 'head' surmounted by eight leaf forms spiralling in to the centre, this supported by a smaller similar domed element, trailing from this head and supporting it a number of tendrils and three elongated leaf forms
Theresa Nguyen often takes inspiration from the natural world. This dynamic, fluid sculpture was developed from the maker's initial vision of a ring of leaves.
