Quotes

...Dorset Art Weeks, which starts on 26 May, some of Jackies cows have had a Dorset makeover next to the pier in Bournemouth and at Sherborne Castle. "I know its a bit wacky, but it just makes me giggle to think of the cows posing for their photo like tourists on their holidays. I hope people see the funny side too! Today Dorset, tomorrow the world! I think my cows will be jetting off somewhere rather more exotic than Bournemouth next time..."
...we make objects that are essentially non-utilitarian; we make beautiful artwork because we find them pleasing to the eye and the soul," he says. "Some of that power is diminished when they are placed in a museum or gallery because they are out of context. Placing sculpture outdoors, where large pieces were intended to be, restores that power so that people can relate to them."
