A theatre spotlight lens. Fascinating distortions hinting at what is beyond the edge of one's vision. The thumbs grip the lens but also(?) measure the innocent child's head - shades of victorian/Nazi obsession with classifying facial types. A sculpture to be located centrally, to be adjusted regularly, and to be viewed obliquely.
