Helix-Antihelix by Dick Onians
£9,400.00
Helix–Antihelix is a sculptural dialogue between opposing spirals. The form consists of two interrelated curves that twist inward and outward, creating a dynamic tension between movement and stillness. The central void acts as a focal point, framing space and inviting the viewer to consider the interplay of positive and negative form.
Stone Resin on Portland Stone Base
The stone resin surface carries a natural, weathered texture, enhanced by subtle mottling and organic coloration, which contrasts with the precision of its carved geometry. Mounted on a Portland stone base, the piece asserts a grounded presence while evoking fluidity and growth.
Statement – Helix–Antihelix
This work explores duality and balance through the language of spirals. The helix suggests continuity and evolution, while the antihelix introduces counter-movement—a reversal that disrupts and redefines the flow. Together, they form a structure that embodies tension and harmony, echoing patterns found in nature and anatomy.
The open center is integral to the composition, creating a dialogue between mass and void, presence and absence. As light shifts across its surfaces, the sculpture reveals new relationships, reinforcing its theme of perpetual change. Helix–Antihelix is a meditation on opposition as a generative force—how contrasting energies shape form and meaning.
