With a background in architecture, interior and furniture design, Philip Hearsey a self-taught sculptor and specialize in sandcasting to make pieces which engage the quality of bronze as a noble material in its own right.
Sculptures are intimate in scale and intended for the interiors of home, office or hotel.
Casting in sand moulds is a simple and ancient method far removed from the sophisticated lost wax operation used by most art foundries. The sand-casting process is relentless and unforgiving – the foundry is no place for a delicate original. It denies a complexity of form that imposes a disciplinary and enriching simplicity.
