About the Item
This contemporary bronze figurative tabletop sculpture featuring animals is by Gillie and Marc.
The British/Australian artistic duo of Gillie and Marc’s humorous bronze sculptures have charmed the world. Their own animal/human hybrid couple—dogman and rabbitwoman are captured here on a park bench, dressed, one sitting, the other resting his head on her knee, books in hand. The two are intended to represent the close human-animal connection many of us share. Edition 26 of 50. The price is in USD.
“There’s something incredibly romantic about being able to sit in the sun and read quietly with the one you love. Rabbitwoman and Dogman devoured books, old and new, snuggled comfortably against each other, all the while.” Gillie and Marc
Gillie and Marc enjoy a rare partnership as they are married and have worked together as artists for more than 25 years. Gillie and Marc are passionate environmental activists who have used their sculptures, paintings, and photographs to celebrate and save endangered animals. Every year, they donate thousands of dollars earned from their art sales to many international animal charities they support through their project ‘Love the Last.’ Among their many accolades, they’ve received the Allens People's Choice Award in 2016 and 2018, the Kids' Choice Award at the 2016 Sculpture by the Sea, and the Bayside Arts Festival People's Choice Award in 2019. Gillie and Marc’s work is exhibited and sold throughout the world.

Gillie and Marc Schattner
‘We are two people working as one, with a single vision — something no one else is doing in art’. The Australian artistic duo Gillie and Marc Schattner have worked together for 27 years creating art as one and “spreading the love they have for each other across the world.” The artists first met on a film shoot in Hong Kong and 7 days were married in Nepal at the foot of Mount Everest. The artists are best known for their beloved characters, Rabbitwoman and Dogman, who tell the autobiographical tale of two opposites coming together to become best friends and soul mates. As unlikely animal kingdom companions, the two stand for diversity and acceptance through love. Gillie and Marc are passionate eco-warriors and advocate for the protection of animals and the earth. Gillie grew up in Zambia and realized her love for art by sketching the wildlife around her. As a child, she was witness to the murder of an elephant brutally and thereafter dedicated her life and work to protecting animals. While in his twenties, Marc fell in love with conservation on a trip to Tanzania to see Jane Goodall’s work with chimpanzees. From this experience, he gained a deep appreciation of all living and the importance of protecting the balance of nature. Gillie and Marc spread messages of love, equality, and conservation around the world. Their sculptures and paintings can be seen in art galleries and public sites in over 250 cities. The pair are Archibald Prize Finalists, were awarded the Chianciano Biennale in Italy, won People’s Choice Award in Sydney’s Sculpture by the Sea 2 years in a row, and have earned other notable awards and accolades. Their art has raised hundreds of thousands in donations for the many wildlife charities and causes they support.
