"The Spirit of McLaren" wire sculpture was commissioned by McLaren Automotive as part of the Ashton Taylor-Smith set design for the launch of the new McLaren 720S Super Car, unveiled at the 2017 Geneva International Motor show.

The clients brief was to create an ethereal figurative sculpture reflecting the cars speed, agility and power.

An extensive visual study of the world's fastest man "Usain Bolt" was carried out over many weeks to achieve the athletic sprinting stance of the final piece.

The finished sculpture was displayed with the 720S super car at The Geneva International Motor Show.
