Matt Carney Abstract Bronze Sculpture

This piece, Obsession, was commissioned alongside Woman In Space by Tetsuya Wakuda for his eponymous restaurant on Kent Street in Sydney. It greeted everyone who passed through the doors from 2011 when it was installed only weeks before Matt's death, until the restaurant's closure in 2024.

Woman In Space (below) was installed at the bar.
