This piece evolved when my children were young and the toys they were playing with, along with the time I spent with them walking in nature. In my work, birds always symbolize the cycle of life and flying the nest into the bigger world beyond. Finding the courage to leave teaching and try to make a living as an artist has parallels with that first ‘leap of faith’ from the ‘nest’ that all birds have to take.
About the artist: Paul Cox
Paul Cox is an award-winning sculptor. He was awarded the Henry Moore scholarship to study postgraduate sculpture at the Royal Academy Schools, London. His work is now represented internationally in public and private collections. Paul now lives and works in the Southeast where he works on gallery exhibition work and one-off commissions.
He is inspired by his surroundings, the simple, but intricate beauty of the natural world is often mirrored in his work. Living by the sea has had a profound affect on the subject matter as can be visualised by this work.
Paul believes play is important, physically and intellectually, he understands that play is involved in anything that is created. With an open mind to materials and his persistent investigative attitude anything is possible. He likes to be surprised by the process of experimentation; many great things have come from mistakes and accidents that happen during the creative process.

I often turn to nature when looking for inspiration in developing sculptural forms.
Scale always plays a role where the viewer can really engage with the physicality of the work.
The three Chrysanthemums flowers in this piece are bound together to forming a still life embracing the beauty of the natural world.
There are ways to give meaning to the work with this flower representing happiness, optimism, hope, abundance as well as luck and long life.
There is metaphor making for a timeless piece that will never wither but retain its presence far in to the future.

Dimensions: Very large, sizes can be provided (please ask)
A donkey set free, unburdened, and as if the voice given it by Dionysus allows it to communicate its deep knowledge and intellectual prowess to the world, it throws its back legs up in celebration.
The donkey is associated with determination, intelligence, and humility. It is often seen as a symbol of service and self-sacrifice, being used for carrying heavy loads and assisting humans for thousands of years. Often underestimated, the donkey is resilient and strong, symbolising the ability to endure hardship and keep moving forward.
The donkey is also associated with stubbornness, known to dig its heels in and refuse to move when it senses danger or feels mistreated.
This is a humorous, playful piece full of fun and echoes of childhood memory.

“This piece in inspired by the wealth of Neolithic and Bronze Age archaeology within the Dorset landscape where I live. The incredible monuments and burial mounds have stood the test of time and still survive today.
This female figure is emerging from a standing stone. She stands upon a Bronze Age burial mound and carries an offering in a Beaker style pot. The sun burst across her chest symbolises the solstice movements of the sun, which were highly important within the ceremonial landscape at that time.” – Brendon Murless

Size – life size barn owl – wing span 82 wide , Oak trunk 160cmH
Edition – Unique but part of an on-going series
Brendon: After witnessing a beautiful barn owl hunting at dusk, gliding and hovering over the grasslands I felt moved to sculpt this majestic bird. I wanted to capture the barn owl coming into land and showing off its beautiful shaped wings, which it uses to hunt silently. Perched on a scorched oak trunk this references the dark silhouette of the trees at night.
