Lot 55: SOLD 'Metropolis' by Rob & Nick Carter
In ‘Metropolis’ we responded to the unique shape of the egg with a spectrum of coloured neon, which acts as both an agent of protection and one of entrancement.

Lot 123: SOLD 'Busby' by Rachel Waldron
I was having an early morning ride around Hyde Park on the cavalry horses when I realised that the most perfect egg would be a soldier. A soldier egg united two of my favourite passions, dippy eggs and soldiers and the cavalry, whose horses I ride.

This is firstly why I chose not to use the standard fibre glass egg that each artist had been allocated, and instead have the same form remodelled in Perspex, ...
Lot 10: 'wOL' by Rebecca Sutherland

Moments like these shaped us into who we are now, and I believe we should hold on to our childhoods for as long as possible if we truly want to explore our horizons. So cherish ...
Lot 17: 'The Great Eggscape' by Alex Williams
At this time of year everything seems to be hatching, emerging from the chill of winter and creating new life. Spring brings with it not just friendly rabbits, birds and chicks but a profusion of insects. Insects may be at the bottom of the food chain, but without them almost all life on the planet ...
Lot 32: 'Our Brood' by Clare Bassett
When I initially saw this egg, the first thing that came to my mind was the wonderful cycle of life. I wanted an image which was both playful and child-centric. The result: there is no egg without the chicken! Or is there?
