“I consider roe deer to be one of my signature subjects. They are a great size to sculpt and a great size to have in the garden. I’m a keen deer stalker and have spent many happy hours observing roe deer in our countryside. We have several roe deer close to home which allow me surprisingly close when walking the dog. I usually take a camera with me to gather research material.”  – Hamish MacKie

This sculpture is also available as a scaled down version in bronze (numbered edition of 25) or silver (numbered edition of 6).

The octopus is an enigmatic, complex creature and highly adaptable. It can regrow lost arms and change its colour to match its surroundings. People have been fascinated by the octopus for millennia. The ancient Greeks decorated coffins, pottery and ritual ornaments with octopus motifs.

Octopus are known for being extremely intelligent. Scientific studies have proved they are capable of sophisticated learning and problem solving skills. There are many stories about how octopus have fused lights in their tanks, squirted water at individual researchers, and unscrewed lids of containers!  Two thirds of their five hundred million neurons are in their arms, which means they can not only touch but also taste and smell with their tentacles.

Hamish has sculpted an explorative octopus inquisitively reaching out to touch. Of course under water, octopus appear almost weightless. It’s this freedom of movement, and having no joints, that Hamish wanted to capture in this characterful sculpture. Each of the over 600 suckers has been individually handmade. From the plasticine original, a high resolution scan was taken to produce a intricately detailed scaled down version cast into both silver and bronze.

“On about my third trip to Africa, I witnessed a lioness catch and kill a young zebra, not more than 30 yards from my vehicle. This was one of my first experiences of the raw power of the natural world and actually left me shaking with adrenalin.

I have since sent many happy hours studying lion at Borana, with the Lewa lion monitoring team in Northern Kenya.

With my 2023 lion sculptures, I set out to have a lioness in the process of stalking a warthog, and then the final chase. I wanted to capture the intent and muscular bulk of these big cats, in a pose with shoulders and hips opposing each other.”    – Hamish MacKie

Numbered Edition of 9
Dated 2019

Sculpture (not including base) 105cm high x 41cm wide x 245cm long / 41.5″ x 16″ x 96.5″ // Base (core ten) 8cm deep x 52cm wide x 205cm long / 3″ x 20.5″ x 81″

Weight including core ten base: 285kg

Sculpted from observation of lion in the wild at Lewa Wildlife Conservancy in Kenya, this bronze lioness sculpture is life size. Hamish spent a week tracking lion with the monitoring team. He was able to observe these magnificent animals at close quarters, following and photographing them over several days.

As well as a comprehensive understanding of their anatomy, Hamish’s studies also enabled him to convey their spirit and proud bearing. The loose handling of his material and his trademark gestural mark making help to bring the essence of the lioness alive.

Made at the same time as Lion Life Size 2019, these two lion sculptures make an impressive pair. They would look equally striking in an indoor or outdoor setting – perhaps placed in a large garden or courtyard as a focal point, arranged in a reception hall or flanking a staircase.

“I have wanted to sculpt lions at a life size scale for a few years, so I asked Ian Craig of the Northern Rangelands Trust in Kenya the best place to observe them. He advised me to visit Lewa Wildlife Conservancy, a favourite place of mine. I spent a week with Patrick, a guide from the lion monitoring team, studying nothing but lion. We drove several hundred km in search of lion and I was able to observe and photograph the king of the beasts. I wanted to capture that real sense of a lion walking, not just the feet going forwards, but the whole swagger – the tail, spine, shoulder blades all working together. Even the subtle lolloping of the head from side to side! I wanted to convey a real feeling of their weight and power under a hot dry and dusty African sun.”    – Hamish MacKie

“On a research trip to Barcelona, I saw several wonderful sculptures with lovely texture. I was also inspired to see how Picasso’s style had changed throughout his working life.

With my bronze Hare Sitting sculpture (and with Hare Running), I set out to have texture lead the way. In my mind, all marks and texture have to have a purpose. There is always a risk that artists can overwork and so ruin the spontaneity and liveliness of a surface that captures the physical energy of the making. I have always been fascinated that a good foundry can capture this into bronze. It’s one thing for me to leave a finger print in soft wet clay, quite another to cast that level of detail into bronze. It makes smooth seem easy!”
