Dragon Fireball, Mild Steel , Edition Open, 90cm high, 90cm wide, 90cm deep, Garden Furniture sculpture

Dragon Fireball is an open edition mild steel sculpture measuring 90 cm in all directions. The piece presents a spherical firepit featuring a dramatic scene of dragons, combining narrative and sculptural form.

The sphere sits slightly elevated on a shallow frame, giving it presence and stability. Thin sheets of steel form the globe, with sections cut away to reveal the intricate scene within. Three dragons dominate the composition. Two rest on the ground, their flat forms etched with details such as eyes, wing bones, and clawed limbs. Above, a third dragon soars, its wings and tail curving to connect visually with the two below. This creates a unified composition, making the dragons feel intertwined in a single dynamic moment.

The ground is uneven, with rocks and textures enhancing the sense of environment and scale. The open cutaways allow light to pass through, producing dramatic shadows and highlighting the intricacy of each dragon’s form.

The steel carries an aged patina, giving the piece a timeless, elemental quality. The warm tones suggest fire and earth, reinforcing the narrative of the dragons’ domain.

Dragon Fireball blends storytelling with abstracted sculptural technique. The circular shape, connected forms, and layered cut-outs invite viewers to engage from multiple angles. The piece balances flat, illustrative forms with the three-dimensional presence of the sphere, transforming functional steel into a vivid, dramatic work of art.
