This Rare Martin Scorey Primitive Folk Art Cockerel Sculpture is a striking example of the late British artist’s imaginative approach to coastal primitive folk art. Standing proudly on a reclaimed driftwood stand, the cockerel features verdigris copper tail feathers, a painted body, verdigris copper crop, and crest that bring character and rustic charm to the piece.
Martin Scorey (1961–2021) lived and worked on the Hampshire coast, where his background as a boat builder shaped his appreciation for primitive materials and coastal textures. He transformed driftwood, copper, weathered timbers, and sea glass into expressive works of art. This primitive cockerel sculpture embodies his style, combining reclaimed objects with a sensitivity to form and storytelling.
Collected by folk art and primitive art enthusiasts and exhibited by specialist galleries, Scorey’s sculptures are prized for their authenticity and originality. Each piece reflects his ability to celebrate British primitive folk traditions while creating something entirely unique.
For collectors seeking a work that blends artistry with heritage, this primitive folk art cockerel sculpture offers a tangible link to Scorey’s creative world and the timeless appeal of coastal primitive folk art.
