"I made this sculpture of the Resurrected Christ for Bath Abbey 2000. It was carved on site at the south east corner of Bath Abbey over a nine month period. During these months thousands of spectators had the opportunity to watch me at work. Many also talked to me about life faith and art. The figure of Jesus breaking the bonds of death is a very potent symbol not only for Christians but for every one. We would all like to be free of our constraints."
