About The Artwork
This handsome hare will bounce in any garden. Corten steel offers a lovely tonal quality so it blends well in a natural environment. Also known as weathering steel – a steel specifically created to have a long-lasting rust finish highly suitable for outdoors. This hare sculpture has been sealed with owatrol oil. Expect some surface changes before it settles down. The sculpture is number 4 in a limited edition of 20. Each piece is never exactly the same as they are individually made. The Big Hare featured in the Irish Times Home & Design section, Sep 2017: ‘Whatever your personal preference, the truth is that outdoor art should have a place in almost every garden, no matter what its size. Chosen with care and positioned with thought, even the most humble piece has the ability to add atmosphere, personality, charm and even an element of humour, to invite conversation and to serve as a handsome focal point. The best sculpture can also create a sense of place, magically echo the contours and colours of the wider landscape and bring out the best in any planting scheme by using it as a leafy foil while providing the perfect contrast of texture and form.’ Fionnuala Fallon in ‘Let the hare sit in the garden and other outdoor artworks‘.

Ireland
Gunvor hails from a family of engineers and priests so perhaps it is no surprise she ended up a sculptor. Her first memory of metal was it’s distinct smell visiting her granddad’s workshop on the West Coast of Denmark. Her first meeting with iron as a tool, was when required to plough the fields the old way with horses and a one-furrow plough. Gunvor composes her sculptures using a minimal amount of components which she assembles in a way that suggest a childish or informal creation. Her work is dramatic yet playful. To retain a sense of the human touch – which can be otherwise absent in large scale metal sculpture – Gunvor purposely leaves her maker’s marks in the form of heavy surface texture.
