This was the first of the limited edition stainless steel sculptures which David developed in late 2005.
An image was taken from one of his steelmesh sculptures, and this drawing was then transformed into this sculpture which is cut into 0.7 mm thick stainless steel
The next series of editioned sculpture was based on three 50cm high figures, which was developed into the Still Series of 18 different pieces.
Begbie uses an image derived from a unique steelmesh sculpture, and translates it into a drawing to then produce the flat stainless steel panel version.
They epitomise sculptural economy and visual succinctness, creating compelling shadows with use of spot lights. They are bold and completely convincing, achieving the translation beautifully from his steelmesh work.
