The Image of an African Chief, African Royalty. Working in West Africa I met many chiefs and learnt a lot about their lives and the rules they live by. Chiefs are not allowed to work for example, so the community has to work for them, they cannot be put in jail for they might die and many other interesting facts. The separate treatment of Chiefs, gives them a natural aura which I tried to portray here. Materials - Librerian mahogany. linseed oil and beeswax. Dark staining of the cloak with natural ink.

Artist Profile: Peter Noel Hanson Background: My artistic journey is a fusion of diverse cultural experiences, having grown up in the UK, Malaysia, Sierra Leone, and The Netherlands. This rich tapestry of influences has profoundly shaped my artistic perspective. Artistic Style: I am a sculptor specializing in wood carvings and I love the craftsmanship of creating and making pieces by hand. I aim for an interplay between the realms of realism and abstraction, to create a dynamic interplay of form and emotion. I find the interaction between various cultures important to highlight and own existence as a person from 2 different cultures will always play a major role in my work. Signature Creations: My unique contribution to the art world lies in the creation of mini tableaus, which I've named 'Prototypes', crafted from repurposed materials. Each piece is a testament to my commitment to sustainability and a reflection of the beauty that can emerge from the discarded. My wood pieces are made of reclaimed, re-used or found wood Old wood carries stories and memories in it, which always adds a extra element to my pieces and I'm intrigued by the whole process of working the wood and giving it new meaning. Inspirations: I am a true eclectic and draw my inspiration from a myriad of sources. Literature, sci-fi, my formative years in Sierra Leone, The UK, Malaysia and the Netherlands, music, contemplative walks, the kaleidoscope of humanity, art in its many forms, and the wonders of the natural world all find a place in my work. I used art as a means to de-traumatize children affected by civil war in West Africa from 2002 - 2016, there I saw how art in it's many forms can truly reach the soul and be a positive force for change, love, unity and peace. Themes: Discover how each hand carved artwork not only represents spiritual artistry, but also contributes to reforestation, local well-being and CO2 compensation in Sierra Leone (West Africa), thanks to my collaboration with Plant N Boom (Plant a Tree), founded by my brother. My work reflects my engagement with themes ranging from historical narratives to the beauty of our surroundings and the beauty of the cultures of this world. My creations invite viewers to explore the intricate connections between humanity, nature, and the evolving tapestry of time. Achievements: My work has an innovative approach and, I hope, the ability to evoke both nostalgia and a sense of wonder.
