Sophie Woodrow





Sophie Woodrow was born in Bristol who was drawn to working with clay from an early age. She graduated from Falmouth College of Art with a BA in Studio Ceramics and ever since creating delicate porcelain sculptures of otherwordly creatures "inspired by the contact point between the natural world and human culture."

"The Owl, is a piece that evokes an enchanting sensation, the emptiness of the sculpture combine with the white, giving a peculiar look and a sense of frivolity, one can’t stop thinking that in any moment the bird will come alive, It is a curious feeling  being observed by sculpture with no eyes and feeling the intensity of the look. Only textures and shapes remind one of the human touches in it. It is truly an extraordinary collection." - Art in Liverpool

Collection: Girl and The Owl










I'll end this week with this lovely collection "Girl and The Owl" which consists of artworks by some very talented people from all over the web. I wish you all a wonderful weekend and I'll see you on Monday. Take care and be safe.

Kate MccGwire: Not Owl, Owl Feathers






I came across these amazing sculptures made by London based artist Kate MccGwire who uses number of recycled feathers to create these intriguing fluid forms.

The feathers used for these pieces are mainly from owls, pigeons & pheasants. "All of her feathers are received from a network of pigeon racers and farmers who mail her the feathers they have collected when their birds begin molting in the Spring." So, no bird is harmed!

If you want to see her incredible work in person then stop by at Eleventh Plateau, Hydra Historical Archives Museum, Greece where she will be exhibiting from July 8th through September 4th.
