Inspired by the 2023 McLaren Formula One Grand Prix car.

This Alastair Gibson sculpture is a smaller version of the original ‘carbon dory’ sculpture which was produced from a commission by the Drang Gallery in Padstow, Cornwall, the UK home of the John Dory fish. It moves away from the usual fast streamlined fish that I sculpt and shows the stylish details of this ancient oceanic creature.
