Sculpture in the Sanctuary Exhibition

After driving down to Tewkesbury in Gloucestershire at the weekend to collect my ‘family of 3’ organic garden sculptures from Showborough House where they were on exhibition in the garden from April to June, they have now been cleaned and packaged up ready to be collected again tomorrow. My sculptures are going to be exhibited at an exhibition in Nottingham called Sculpture in the Sanctuary, from August 7th – 31st 2009. The exhibition will take place within a 15 acre swan sanctuary that features 5 lakes and gladed open areas.


I’m really excited to see them displayed at a new venue and amongst other exterior sculptures made by many different artists/sculptors in a whole range of materials. Click here to view a list of all other participating sculptors to get an idea of the work that will be on show.

An idea that is said to be taking place at this event is for the visitors of the park to fix their own piece of some sort of material to a huge wall covered with metal wire, so that a brand new sculpture is made by all visitors.



Other exciting news: We bought a Nintendo Wii at the weekend! Been playing Wii Fit, although its not such a good idea when theres lots of making to be done! But it does keep you fit 🙂

I have also just been commissioned by a customer to design and make a sculptural vessel for her 8th wedding anniversary gift to her husband. It’s going to have some of the words from the song they danced to at their wedding, as well as lines from a poem he wrote in her first valentines card. Colour scheme needs to be cream, olive green and blue. I’ve never worked on anything so personalised like this before, but I’m really excited about it! Will show you the results when its finished.

    The exhibition sounds like fun! Good luck with it… I've just got the Wii Fit out again after about a year's break! Vic
