Simon Gudgeon (born 1958[1]) is a British sculptor specialising in large pieces for public display, usually in bronze, but also sometimes glass or stainless steel.[2] He operates his own sculpture park.[3]
Early life
Gudgeon qualified in law and only took up sculpture at the age of 40.[4]
Sculpture park
He operates his own 26 acres (11 ha) sculpture park near Tincleton, Dorchester, England.[3]
Isis
A number of his works are in public collections, including Isis, displayed in Hyde Park, London, unveiled 7 September 2009. 1,000 plaques around the base were sold to donors for personalised inscriptions at £1,000 each,[5] as a way of funding the park's Isis Education Centre for introducing young people to the study of nature. The work was donated to the park by the Halcyon Gallery.[6]
Other casts of Isis are at Prince Charles' Highgrove House in Gloucestershire and at the United States' National Museum of Wildlife Art.[4]
