This piece was inspired by the 19th century sculpture by Italian master Adriano Cesioni, titled ‘Enfant auCoq’ (Child with Cockerel). This reinterpretation defines the struggle and desperation to hold onto that which we want and love, and the opposing struggle and desperation to escape the situation imposed upon us.
Through the medium of scrap and salvaged metal, life, character and emotions are beautifully captured in a moment in time, that pays tribute to the masters of old as well as demonstrating the possibilities of this contemporary medium. Each metal component goes through an intense heating process in the forge. It is then hammered and shaped before being welded in place. What sets Alans work apart, is that almost all the welding and methods of construction are internally hidden within the sculpture. This element creates a huge challenge when creating his pieces, to an almost counter intuitive way of working, but it gives his artworks a fluid and visual richness that is refined and unique.

The Voyager is on his journey across the mysterious ocean of life. While the ocean has many waves that can rock his boat, he is calm and focused.
Although he is alone on his journey, he has a guide – the bird, who connects him to his natural instincts and spirit. The bird looks ahead and helps guide the way.
He is held by his boat and trusts that the boat will carry him.
In his hand is a staff which he holds to feel supported. It connects him to the support of all those who have helped help him make his great journey.’

Young Minotaur Ltd Ed. Bronze on stainless steel stand Ht: 87 cms
The YOUNG MINOTAUR I wanted the sculpture to show a more human, compassionate side to the Minotaur. I wanted to get away from the mad, bad, insane monster condemned to the labyrinth. This is the Minotaur when he is young man, with all the confidence and pride of youth. He’s content with himself and the way he looks. He doesn’t care what other people think.

The Gaslighter’s Comeuppance material: Holly size: 1.6m
“This sculpture offers a statement about the commonality of living things, how we are bound by our shared experiences. The piece is based on a life model who combined a foreboding physical presence with an incredibly sensitive soul. The work is in no way a portrait, it’s a fictionalised account, a melding of the model’s personality with untruths suggested by his appearance. Consider it the beginning of a redemption story, a character study of someone stopped in their tracks by a dawning realisation.
The words we use with trees: limb; heartwood; trunk, are the language of bodies. The smell, warmth, weight, moisture, the sounds, are analogous with human flesh. They are heady and visceral. These sensory qualities heighten my relationship with the work and I see no reason to suppress this. I wish you to experience it. I love the qualities of wood when it is worked viciously- split, cleaved, dented and splintered, particularly alongside delicate sculpted forms. It’s a material of superb contrasts which can also be shaped with tenderness, revealing a very human vulnerability.
The piece was one of three major pieces carved for my touring exhibition, The Way of All Flesh. This sculpture in particular has captured the imagination of the audience, featuring in national and international press. He has travelled over 1000 miles between galleries, art fairs and project spaces in Edinburgh, Lancashire, Manchester, Wilmslow, West Yorkshire, Nottingham, Lincolnshire and Sheffield. “

Val Adamson: “African Triptych II was developed from three studies I sculpted of women from the African tribes Mangbetu, Fulani and Igbo. I was drawn to the wonderful sculptural forms in their hair and the huge importance of hair as a sign of status and divine communication. I combined the original studies with masks and art works from the same tribes to create the more elaborate ‘African Triptych II’. These pieces have now inspired further sculpts that combine an emotion in a face with an abstract form above that reflects that emotion.”
Igbo, Mangbetu and Fulani available together for £2,650
Also available with Oak base for interior spaces (see below)
