Tony Cragg — Flotsam
Tony Cragg

Flotsam

2001

Tony Cragg's *Flotsam* (2001) is a dynamic sculptural work that exemplifies the British artist's signature exploration of form, material, and the boundaries between organic and manufactured objects. Cragg masterfully arranges fragmented and layered elements to create a sense of movement and accumulation, evoking the debris and detritus that washes ashore. The work reflects his longstanding fascination with the relationship between humanity, industry, and the natural world.
