A magnificent large spiraling work in dark iron by Takatsu Mio. Perfection of form defines this young female artists work, and this does not disappoint. It begins at a blunt point, tightly spiraling outward as the shape evolves from a thick round to a wide spiraling flange. A very challenging work which seems to defy understanding. It is 66 cm long and in excellent condition, directly from the artist. It is signed beneath.
