About the Item
Slash is a bronze sculpture by contemporary artist Peter Brooke Ball, dimensions are 21 × 14 × 13 cm (8.3 × 5.5 × 5.1 in).
This sculpture is numbered, it is part of a limited edition of 3 editions and comes with a certificate of authenticity.
The humour, simplicity, and sensuality of Peter Brooke-Ball's works surprise despite their lack of a clear, self-evident message. The intention is to make “objects that are gorgeous with a hint of mystery“, as he himself puts it. The sculptures question ideas of protection and bonding while occasionally making references to violence or coercion. This is in line with the artist's statement that “I see each piece as a thought and I want to keep that thought secure and precious, fearing it might all slip away“.
The titles of sculptures frequently allude to a concept, a circumstance, or an emotion, even though each viewer responds differently and has their own interpretation.

Peter Brooke-Ball
Peter Brooke-Ball’s abstract sculptures surprise with their humour, simplicity and sensuality. His work actively connects and compels the coexistence of dissimilar materials (primarily stone and rope), that are attached, suspended, surrounded, covered or tied to each other. The contrasting, evocative aesthetic elements of the artworks contribute to them being highly enigmatic, sometimes troubling and disturbing, sometimes amusing and playful. Peter Brooke-Ball’s work was featured in a BBC documentary in 2016. The artist is a member of the Royal Society of Sculptors (MRSS), an English organisation that promotes excellence in sculpture. “My overriding passion is purity and simplicity. I strip away superfluous marks and decoration to express simple, honest ideas. What’s left can be a little scary but that is part of the purpose – to unsettle the viewer.”
