A bronze sculpture by Breon O’Casey depicting a stylised bird, a recurring motif throughout his work. The rounded body, abbreviated legs and broad tail reduce the bird to a series of simplified forms, while the textured surface of the bronze is finished with a green-blue patina.
Breon O’Casey (1928–2011) was a British artist associated with the St Ives School. Working across painting, sculpture, printmaking and weaving, he developed a practice informed by European modernism, characterised by a close attention to form, structure and materiality. Themes of landscape, nature and symbolism recur throughout his work.
