About the Item

British sculptor Anthony Theakston (1965), who draws his inspiration from the shape and movement of birds, simplifies the birds and omits more and more details until only the essence of the animal remains. The stylized birds are reduced to a contrast between curves and angular shapes. The result is a sleek and expressive shape that beautifully reflects the bird's character. It is of great importance to Anthony Theakston that his work is ultimately beautiful, to see and to touch. It’s not just about the bird, it’s about its character. Despite the fact that the ''Night Owl'' has an edition of 12, every piece has a different patina which makes each sculpture unique. Anthony Theakston's work is widely acclaimed and collected in his home country, the UK, and is increasingly in demand worldwide. The British Council, the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford and the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, among others, own his work. His work is recognized by many as the antiques of the future.
