Andrew Horsfall, a member of the Royal Society
of British Sculptors, has established himself as one of the
leading figures in contemporary English sculpture. He has been
invited to display pieces at three consecutive Royal Academy
exhibitions, in addition to the numerous exhibitions that have
been dedicated entirely to his work.
Andrew has worked in a wide range of materials. One phase of
his work reflected his interest in using recycled and storm-damaged
wood. Another phase explored techniques of-casting in pewter
and lead. But it is for his outstanding sculpture in stone
that Andrew is chiefly known. The range of stone has encompassed
English and French limestones and sandstones; and more recently
marble and granite.

A recurring
theme of Andrew’s work is the exploration of the correspondence
between organic forms at the microcosmic and macrocosmic levels.
His sculpture can evoke the monumental scale of the landscape
– and it can also suggest an inward exploration of the sub-molecular
world.
From the outset Andrew has been both a sculptor and a designer.
The theme of his first catalogue was ‘design in sculpture:
sculpture in design’ – and the interweaving of
sculptural elements in the design of everyday objects has become
the hallmark of his design studio STONEofDESTINY. Visit:
