Philip Hearsey
Sculpture
Sculptor Philip Hearsey specialises in the sand casting of bronze works, which he then refines by cutting, carving, grinding, patinating, polishing and finishing to achieve the desired outcome. Every sculpture is individual, and each is signed and numbered and has its own details and imperfections that are important to the unique character of each piece.
Philip is a self-taught sculptor. He lives and works on the Welsh borders of Herefordshire.

Sculptures - physical objects, result from seeing, thinking and feeling, translated through making, thinking, feeling and touching. What is in my head when I make work is very private, and every piece that I make has a meaning for me that is completely personal. I choose names with care and a certain ambiguity - they are not intended to be prescriptive, but to leave room for a spectator's own interpretation.
