Love the form, colour and style of this terracotta sculpture by Sophie Howard.
The organic feel of this sculpture is intriguing, the soft lines, natural cracking and shape is so inviting to study. Whether you admire the sculpture from any angle it is always pleasing to the eye. Mounted on a rustic pine socle, when positioned in a distant position at the end of a hallway and lit correctly, you cannot help but create a wonderful focal point.
Bio...
Sophie is an accomplished sculptor working from her studio in central Bristol. She collaborates with a team of skilled professionals, including mould makers, casters, and fellow artists, to bring her designs and commissions to life. Her work spans various mediums, including ceramic, bronze resin, and bronze.
With a background in design, Sophie has created architectural details and props for TV and worked with companies in the garden ornament industry, crafting pieces such as Buddhas, birdbaths, owls, and obelisks.
In her quest to express her unique artistic voice, Sophie explores themes like motion and stillness, the human form, dance, urban life, and animals through her collections. Her work is commissioned by private and corporate clients and is showcased in galleries across the UK, as listed on her 'Exhibiting' page.
Sophie has been teaching art for thirty years and offers short courses at The Royal West of England Academy. Her extensive experience includes leading sculpture projects in schools, galleries, and with the Probation Service. Additionally, she served as a creative industry business adviser in Bristol for four years.
Born in West Dorset in the late 1950s, Sophie was raised in Yorkshire and trained at Winchester Art School. After living in London, she returned to the West Country in 1987. Currently, she resides in Bristol and is a director of HOURS, a gallery and event space in the city.
