Product story
This etching was created by Nigel Hall and printed with Norman Ackroyd for the Yorkshire Sculpture Park in 2008. The opposing forms in the foreground of the print are not quite identical. In the artist’s own words, ‘one shape is transformed to the next with slight changes’. The ‘teardrop’ shapes form a negative and a positive, a yin and a yang, thereby creating both balance and opposition. The image closely relates to a sequence of twelve wall-based sculptures made by Hall, in which two similar forms make up a unified whole.
