JACKAL - Wood Spirit
JACKAL - Wood Spirit
Jackal ‘Wood Spirit’, created from found wood Abigail has carefully gathered on her wanderings.
Each piece of wood has been selected for it’s unique qualities of shape, texture or markings, carrying with it a feeling of the animal it is destined to become.
The starting place for these pieces isn’t the idea to create a specific animal, but a careful assessing of the wood collection and as pieces are selected to work with, the animal characters begin to reveal themselves.
The Wood Spirits evoke the spirits of the trees they once were.
Abigail works mostly with a range of hand tools in her London studio to create each piece. Touches of colour are added in paint.
Created for display only, it is a fragile piece to be handled with care. It is not a toy.
It comes with a tiny hook on the back of it’s neck for wall display.
