Fantastic Fin, Bronze, 165 centimetres high and stretching 125 centimetres wide, Unique.

Fantastic Fin is a bold and captivating abstract sculpture, cast in bronze from a large propeller fin that carries a strong sense of motion, industry, and transformation.

The original propeller fin – once a functional, engineered object designed to push air or water with precision has been reimagined as something more expressive and symbolic. In bronze, its form retains the sweeping, aerodynamic curves of the blade, but the surface takes on a richer, more organic character through the casting process.

The metal shows subtle traces of the original texture: faint ridges, tool marks, and worn edges preserved from the propeller’s working life. These industrial traces contrast with the warm, deep tones of the bronze – shifting between dark patinas in recessed areas and polished highlights along the leading edge where light catches.

The fin is mounted vertically like a soaring wing, suggesting ascent and flight.

Overall, this piece sits between engineering and art: a once-functional object transformed into a permanent statement about movement, power, and the beauty of industrial design made timeless in bronze.
