47 parts
The bronze horses of primal are part of a body of work that also includes birds (primitive, 2011) and fishes (primordial, 2016). The groupings of creatures from land, air and sea represent the wider world and encapsulate the trinity of themes – natural phenomena, romanticism and existentialism - that underpin the artist’s oeuvre. The fundamental subject matter is visually emphasized by the honest and unadorned aesthetic of the sculptures.
