Jeff Thomson has forged a career of working with metal and playing with notions of accessibility, to develop a unique and playful sculptural style. His repeated use of corrugated iron has been linked to a fascination with roadside folk art, which developed early in his career during walks in rural Auckland.

In 'Corrugated Spiral', Thomson���s lighthearted technique is shown at its best. The corrugated iron, which might normally seem heavy and industrial, is deftly turned into delicate lace. Despite the robust nature of the media, ���Corrugated Spiral��� is light, bouncy and charming. Thomson deliberately works to redefine the essence of sculpture in this manner, by injecting a ���childlike charm��� into his works.
