De-fence

This is an installation created as part of a sculpture walk for Powys Arts Month's 'Made in Knucklas' event at Knucklas Castle near Knighton. It is a small circle or stockade of white chestnut palings, which I have recycled from my 2008 installation 'Fence' . The structure alludes to the lost military architecture of Knucklas Castle but is deliberately small and vulnerable, suggesting 'defensiveness' as well as 'defence'.
