Jericho by Peter Blunsden, Steel, Unique, 160cm high by 148cm wide by 80cm deep, Abstract sculpture
Jericho is a striking abstract steel sculpture by Peter Blunsden. Standing 160 cm high, 148 cm wide, and 80 cm deep, the work has a strong physical presence while maintaining a sense of movement and openness. Blunsden constructs the sculpture from multiple pieces of steel, welding them together into a compact yet dynamic form.
The composition curves inward while remaining jagged and angular. Discs, poles, and cut flat planes intersect and overlap, creating a complex structure built from contrasting shapes. Although the overall form feels rounded, sharp angles and directional lines disrupt its symmetry. As a result, the sculpture balances tension and cohesion. Numerous gaps between the steel elements allow light and space to pass through, giving the work visual depth and encouraging viewers to explore it from different angles.
Blunsden smooths the metal surfaces to remove sharp edges, softening the industrial material without losing its strength. At the same time, the angled planes retain a sense of energy and movement. The steel keeps its natural, weathered colouring, reinforcing the material’s honesty and connection to its environment.
Jericho reflects Blunsden’s interest in structure, balance, and abstraction. The sculpture rewards close viewing, as shifting perspectives reveal new relationships between mass, void, and form. Ideal for collectors of contemporary abstract sculpture, *Jericho* makes a powerful statement in gallery spaces, architectural settings, or outdoor environments.
