| A
garden is full of insects so sculptural versions fit in perfectly.
The Giant Spider opposite is translucent and suits this sunny
spot. When the sun is at a certain angle it shimmers. In the
moonlight it turns into a ghost. In the wind the web quivers.
Its body is 204 inches 81cms long. It hangs from a web about
480 inches, 12.2 metres wide and high. The eyes are Domestos
bleach bottles recycled. I have done another spider in stainless
steel silver stripes to hang in a dark spot among trees for
a client.
