This work was commissioned by AVIVA for the main London office at 1 Undershaft EC3. The bronze was made from a live casting session where Ben and his team created a direct cast from life. The end result is a fragmented style of sculpture which Ben says:


"This work links us to those early Olympian champions of over 2000 years ago where we often find the fragmented sculptures of antiquity in places such as the British museum. Each fragment has within it's core, something of the entirety of the subject, and here we can see the power zone of the athlete which is the driving force behind such an iconic athlete."
