A unique piece inspired by the statues of the ancient Roman gods. 

Cast in iron resin, the piece is heavily textured to create the sense of age, while the detail is typical of Angela’s fascination with the beauty of the female form, its seductive quality captured in the hands sculpted around the hips. 

One of a series of small figurative pieces, this arching  form is typical of an Angela Farquharson sculpture where  she seeks to preserve the ‘norms’ of classical sculptural forms while making her work more emotive and ‘modern’. She uses a natural unglazed finish to enhance the sensuality of the piece and draw out the inherent beauty within the female form.

This piece epitomises the simplicity of form and carved elements that are a signature of Wendy’s work and her fascination with geological formations.

Clay is carved to create the ‘natural’ folds on the surface of this piece, while the volcanic like texture is achieved by adding clay to a clay foundation and then carving into the clay surface. The natural look is amplified by adding several layers of glaze imbued with silicon carbide. 

In the reference to the ancient standing stones of our ancestors. Connecting us with the standing stone of the ancients Brown colour?

The works are high fired and are suitable for any interior or exterior spaces. 

The stone is infused with copper during the firing process to enhance the natural colours and textures of rock found on the coastline of North Wales. The abstract form captures the ‘movement’ of rock and seaweed seen through the surface water of a rock pool, referencing the texture, colour and form of coral. 

A detailed study in clay, inspired by the heavy millstones crafted from ancient stone and etched by the milling of grain.

Made by using a range of hand building techniques, the clay is carved to create copper ribbons of clay from one focal point. Multiple layers of glaze are then added to amplify its authentic stone character. 

The works are high fired and are suitable for any interior or exterior spaces.

This piece showcases Wendy’s fascination with erosion and its impact on geological formations. Hand building techniques are combined with carving to exaggerate the natural forms, creating a piece that is at once contemporary and ancient, using the natural texture of clay to connect the living with the past.
