The Alien
750mm high

This piece was originally part of a Rātā tree. Its shape reminded Brian of something slightly other-worldly, which is how it got its name.

Angry Dragon

This piece is made from Mataī hardwood, with the timber estimated to be around 200 years old. After falling, it spent more than 20 years on the beach being shaped by the elements.
