Starting bid: £196
In 2004, Music in the Round staged the world premiere of a children's Opera entitled Daughter of the Sea. It was an adaptation by composer Richard Chew of a book by Berlie Doherty (who also wrote the libretto), and the performance featured choirs and a musicians drawn from local schools.
As with most of Viv's sculptures, this piece became what the stone wanted it to be, not what she herself directed. Viv describe how, when the piece was almost complete, she turned the head and realized it needed a fish eye. It was at this point that she remembered the Music in the Round performance, and the connection seemed to fit!
