Their Domain is Unlimited (1990) was originally installed in the garden of the home of Eric and Jean Cass, Bleep, by the artist himself. The humanity expressed in this piece transcends any spoken language. The generalised forms of the figures, their apparent gaze (they have no eyes as such) into the unknown, endow them with mystery - "What I try to depict are the timeless universal qualities of mankind based on life itself. The connection between mother and child, two lovers etc., the lots of human beings and their affinity, their relationship with each other, My work is human-minded, My figures have a vague head to cause the looker to see the beauty of the sculptures as an external idea and not as the personification of an individual and of a race.
