On the Verge
On the Verge is a sculpture by artist Priti Patel. It shows a fragile translucent cracked egg, made from cernit polymer clay, standing at the top of a twisted aluminium stair case that is tapered. The staircase is standing in a square pool of black oil. When you look into it, you are staring into the abyss, the void. There is a menacing shadow of the sculpture behind it.
