The mare and foal was my first really large-scale sculpture after I had set myself up in business – the elephant having been produced as a university coursework piece. They are life-size, and are very tactile: people meeting them invariably give the mare a pat on the flank, which delights me. I also enjoy the foal’s startled readiness to dash away somewhere. The interaction between them changes depending on where the foal is placed.

Mare £5,650; foal £1,450; as a pair, £7,100.
