J.H Palmer "A.H.I-W.H Bond sculpture" is a sculpture that is derived shape is the Maori fish hook (Matau) and the anchor stone. The two Maori fish hooks and anchor stone is made out of concrete steel. The shape of the hooks is identified as a Maori cause of the aesthetic style. The way the sculpture is viewed from various direction are different. There are sharp lines that outlines the hooks and is manipulating viewers cause of the lines that are clearly visible to see. The flat surface on the hooks is very smooth, creating the sculpture shapes and three-dimentional views to it. I don't really like the sculpture because of its random form and shape, the sculpture hasn't given me a point of focus. i feel that the sculpture is bright cause of the color and sunlight it has. The sunlight forms a shadow of the sculpture and gives viewers a totally different look of the sculpture. The shadow changes shape as the sunlight hits the sculpture from different direction as time goes by during the day. It kinda realtes to my studio work with Dion cause of the similar process it takes to create the sculpture but the scales of the work are different.
