鈥榁ented Standing Device with Casting鈥�聽was purchased by the University's Art Acquisitions Committee in November 2005. This work created as part of the series which lead to the 鈥楩or beating and breathing鈥� exhibition at the Robert McDougall Art Gallery in 1995.

Drummond used the term 鈥楧evice鈥� in the title deliberately, in order to allude to the sculpture having a possible technological function. On closer inspection however, this sculpture has a function only in a metaphorical sense. It is simply an 鈥榦bject of delight鈥�.

The glass sphere serves to set it apart, making the sculpture untouchable and encapsulating it in its own atmosphere. The idea of a specific atmosphere was also an important one for Drummond, the dome serving not just to hold the viewer out, but to capture inside a moment in time.
