Silicon bronze, 330 x 240 x 240 cm
Acquired 2003
Coil forms part of Andrew Rogers’ long-running Rhythms of Life series, a global project that explores movement, continuity and the patterns that connect people and landscape. Cast in silicon bronze, the sculpture spirals upward in a looping form that captures both tension and release, creating a quiet moment of focus along the Sculpture Trail. Its curves react beautifully to shifting light throughout the day, inviting visitors to follow its gesture before returning their eye to the surrounding vines and sky.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Andrew Rogers
Andrew Rogers is an internationally recognised Australian sculptor whose practice includes bronze sculpture, stonework and some of the most ambitious land art projects in the world. His work explores universal themes of movement, lineage and the human impulse to make marks across time. Known for both intimate sculptural forms and vast environmental installations, Rogers’ practice bridges archaeology, landscape and contemporary art.Working primarily with bronze and stone, Rogers creates forms that arc, twist and gesture in ways that echo natural rhythms and ancient symbolic languages. His celebrated Rhythms of Life series, created across 16 countries, has become the largest contemporary land art project ever undertaken and reflects his ongoing interest in geometry, continuity and collective identity.
