Clodgy references a pronounced headland visible from Porthmeor Beach, St. Ives. Using a landmark as a title was a custom of Mitchell's, to enforce the affinity of his works with the landscape and the inspiration he drew from it. His deep understanding of line and form, and the interplay between patinated and polished surfaces, are particularly evident in this monumental and balanced cast.
