‘Roger Hardy’s sculptural pieces explore the possibilities that can be found in ordinary timber, often overlooked or unwanted. They are “object trouve´” to the inspiration of an artistic eye that can see further and with that breath new artistic life into them.

The natural colours work easily together. The teased out grain has a flowing rhythm and forms a natural base to support a figure that in itself could easily have just walked from the woods.

These humble objects reminding us that we are all part of a larger world, but also help us sustain and enjoy their natural presence.’
