- Description: In this piece, Andrea Geile was inspired by ivy which is a recurring theme in her work. She describes it as one of the most bio-diverse plants in Scotland, supporting animals and wildlife, ever-growing, everlasting, and 'a lovely image for life'. The dynamism and movement of the leaves makes it almost seem that it is dancing.
Working in her Edinburgh studio, the artist drew and then plasma-cut each leaf out of corten steel.
The sculpture has been placed in the Garden of Time as a memorial to Helen Beale and Francis Bell who met as young lecturers at the University of Stirling in its early years, and made a valuable contribution to the cultural life on campus. - Dimensions: 130cm high
