This new sculpture repeats, in miniature, the three universal forms of Cube, Sphere, Pyramid, which is exhibited amongst the Temperate House's tree ferns. Nash also uses these forms in his gallery work.

Red and Black Dome

Nash always considers how sculpture occupies or shares space. His dome works are a reflection of this thinking, using small forms to create a larger sculpture, each echoing the whole. Black and red are repeated within his work; the black base is dark and dense while the red peak is an active colour.
