Hope makes it into the Natural Eye 2024 Exhibition at the Mall Galleries, London

"Hope": A Cold Cast Bronze Sculpture with a Message of Survival

There’s something quietly powerful about the way a pangolin begins to unfurl—cautious yet full of wonder. My latest animal sculpture, titled Hope, captures that very moment: a pangolin gently uncurling to explore its world, a symbol of resilience and curiosity.

Hope is sculpted in cold cast bronze, its textured surface capturing every detail of this incredible endangered creature. It’s a deeply personal piece, and I’m honoured that it has been selected for the Natural Eye exhibition at the Mall Galleries in London, 2024. This marks Hope’s second major exhibition, and it means the world to have it exhibited alongside some of the most respected names in wildlife sculptures—including legendary animal art sculptors Nick Bibby and Nick Mackman, and 2D works by the renowned conservationist and presenter Chris Packham.

To stand beside such talent in celebrating the wild, the vulnerable, and the beautiful is a moment of real pride. Each piece in the Natural Eye show plays a role in deepening our connection to the natural world, and I’m grateful to be part of that conversation through bronze animal sculptures like Hope.

In a time when pangolins are facing the brink due to illegal wildlife trade and habitat loss, Hope is more than a sculpture—it’s a call to protect what is precious. This bronze art sculpture serves not only as a piece of craftsmanship but as a visual story that reminds us how fragile and beautiful our planet’s creatures truly are.

Whether you're a collector searching for a meaningful bronze sculpture for sale, or simply someone who appreciates the emotional depth of bronze art statues, Hope speaks to the soul of what animal art can be.
