Close photograph of a damaged, rust-coloured copper-toned metal relief panel with embossed scrolling or floral ornamentation, lying in wet ground and partly broken away from a plaster or cement base. A bare foot with dark skin rests at the upper right, and a bare foot appears at the top edge. A small blue-and-white plastic container sits at the lower right. A purple bird logo appears at the top left. Wet earth and debris surround the relief. No people are fully visible, and no a person candidate is clearly visible in the frame.2011-10-22September 06 20092009-09-06A large copper-coloured sculpted pair of feet, with toes and an arched sole detail, lies on a sandy floor in a workshop or work area, apparently partly coated in plaster or cast material. A sheet of newspaper lies behind it and a small torn packet sits to the right. Behind and beside the feet are partially visible similar copper-toned sculptural forms, and the rough, unfinished setting suggests the statue is in fabrication. No people are visible.2009-09-06September 03 20092009-09-03October 22 20112011-10-22A close photo of a heap of weathered, tarnished metal sculptural fragments on a dusty concrete floor, appearing to be broken or cast-off pieces of statues or figures. Several curved metal shapes show rounded forms with rusty red edges and bluish patina, including what looks like feet, folded drapery and a rounded base. A wrinkled piece of paper and a metal bin sit at the left edge, and a few terracotta-coloured pieces lie in the lower right. No people are visible.2009-09-03A photograph of a dusty ground littered with large corroded metal fragments, apparently damaged or disassembled sculptural parts with a reddish-brown patina and gold-toned streaks. Two curved copper-coloured pieces with embossed scroll and swirl patterns lie in the foreground, and a larger plated fragment with a worn, scorched look rests behind them. A pink plastic basket, a hammer, pliers, scattered paper and a stone block sit among the debris. No people are visible and no a person candidate appears in the scene.2009-12-19July 14 20132013-07-14December 12 20092009-12-12A concrete floor in a thatched-walled space with woven bamboo panels behind. In the foreground lie several large copper-coloured repoussé sheets embossed with raised ornate patterns, apparently temple or ritual metalwork such as plates or covers, arranged loosely on the ground. Nearby are a stainless steel plate with a ladle, a steel tumbler, a terracotta bowl on a ledge, a white plastic bag, a red marker pen and a white bucket. No people are visible.2009-07-01Close-up photo of a foot-shaped object lying on a dusty concrete floor. A pale white plaster or clay foot with clearly formed toes emerges from a wrapping of thin copper-coloured sheet metal, which is folded and tinted with orange and purple oxidation. Beneath the metal lies a sheet of old printed newspaper. A metal rod or pipe runs across the top left corner and a wooden board sits at the lower left edge. No people are visible.2009-09-03December 28 20112011-12-28
