Reference to a wooden sculpture known as A'a (illustrated) originating from Rurutu in the Austral Islands, in the British Museum. 4 'A'a caught the eye of a young Henry Moore in the 1920's and 30's, and he later had a copy cast in bronze, which became one of his most prized possessions.' Moore described his excitement about the piece as coming from its sense of life-force with all those small figures springing from the parent figure" and even altered his version in an effort to regain the piece's original impact: "On my cast I have made up the edge of the chin where it is damaged in the original because I so like its razor sharpness"."

Discussion of the language of psychoanalysis and phenomenology in relation to Hepworth and Moore's mother and child subject. Moore described as 'rather mawkish' by comparison.
