Chasing the Curve – Ancaster Weatherbed on Portland stone plinth.
Unique, hand carved sculpture
“Chasing the Curve” is one of Martin’s most evocative pieces – both in form and in the story it carries. While it’s often described as an elegant figurative sculpture with fluid, feminine lines the deeper narrative lies in its title and the process behind it.
The phrase “Chasing the Curve” describes the sculptors ongoing pursuit of the perfect line—creating an elusive arc formed by the garment so that it feels just right in the hand and to the eye. It’s about the sculptor’s instinct: that moment when a curve isn’t just a shape, but a feeling. This piece captures that pursuit—both the physical act of sculpting and the emotional drive to find balance, grace, and flow in form.
Martin has sculpted multiple versions in stone and bronze with heights varying between 12 cm and 1.8 metres with each iteration refining the gesture, the tension, the release. This repetition is almost meditative for the sculptor and is part of the story. It’s not just about the final shape and depth of the garments curve and its relationship to the figures, but the journey to get there. In that sense, “Chasing the Curve” becomes a metaphor for the creative process itself: always reaching, never quite settling, always sculpting toward something just out of reach.

After watching wild honey bees interact with each other and seeing them swarming near my workshop I was inspired to create this sculpture to emphasize the plight of the bees and the integral connection between humans and nature. Bee populations in the wild are in declining globally, which directly impacts nature as a whole and our food security. The queen bee also holds symbolism of fertility (as she is the only bee capable of reproduction), leadership, community and hard work. In folklore, bees are seen as protectors of woodland spirits and are associated with family and protection.
