Infinity
"Infinity" captures the eternal cycles of nature through the form of a gum leaf twisted into a spiral. The shape evokes the idea of continuous growth, renewal, and transformation, while the spiral itself symbolizes endless progression. Crafted in bronze, the piece invites the viewer to reflect on the infinite flow of life and the interconnectedness of all things in nature.

Stephen Glassborow
Born in Hammersmith England, Stephen served his apprenticeship as a Sculpture student at Newcastle upon Tyne and at Brighton College in the United Kingdom before moving to Australia as a young professional sculptor in the early 1980s. He has since attracted considerable interest and many commissions throughout Australia, and in Asia.
In his work, Glassborow relies heavily on traditional classical precedents and careful anatomical observation. Nevertheless, he manages to temper his respect for figurative precision with a refined elegance and beauty. His is sometimes an Art Deco renaissance.
Retaining fluidity in the body while still achieving sharp muscular perfection through clay thrills Glassborow. The skill of merging the two successfully drives him into further exploration of the human form.
