t is a twelve month process for Mackenzie and his team to create a special piece of art cast in Bronze or Stainless Steel. Beginning with Mackenzie working with clay to turn an image from his imagination into a 3D reality, then his team of model makers work to transform his clay model into polystyrene and to scale, then Mackenzie carves the detail. Primarily it is cast in wax, then the final material ready to be treated and then off to be enjoyed in homes, gardens, parks, offices, hospitals all around the world.

THE MAKING Mackenzie created this sculpture at his studio; using a wire armature he designed the sculpture using clay over a period of a couple of months.

The figure, gradually developed and morphed until Mackenzie felt he was finished. He commented that the figure seemed to just grow out of the clay and say ‘here I am’.

SITTING ON LOVE (BRONZE)

It’s the hardest thing to make bronze, an incredibly hard metal, look soft. This is what I wanted to achieve with Sitting on Love and I am thrilled with the final result, each piece looks gorgeous and truly individual.

It’s not until you pick it up, do you realise how heavy it is.
