'ROCKING HORSE RIDER III'
Dimension: 5.91'' x 7.09'' x 2.76''
Certification of Authenticity: Apricus Art Collection
Signature: Signed by Artist
Rocking-Horse Rider III is the fourth in a series of four Rocking-Horse Riders who are having a race. He has rocked himself to the absolute limit of his rocker, to the point when he will either rock back downwards, or tip over forwards completely. He is either enthusiastically reaching the limit of what can be achieved, or recklessly ignoring the danger.
There is some irony to this series, because however hard they rock the riders will, of course, be staying in the same place because, by their nature, rocking-horses don’t actually go anywhere… Although still on one spot, this rider is very much at the heart of movement.
This sculpture is made of bronze and mounted on a beautiful base made of Portland stone

Artist Statement
Holly Bennett makes sculpture of people, animals and unusual creatures, which she uses as metaphors to tell an internal narrative. She works with great consideration, integrity and humour, and communicates through direct visual impact and shared emotive response. She creates sculpture that is exciting and moving, and which speaks to an audience who is interested in engaging with areas of deeper significance within our lives.
The original sculpture is modelled in wax and then cast as a limited edition into a vibrant British-made ecoresin, which creates an aesthetic that keeps the beautiful translucent qualities of the wax, while remaining accessible to a wide audience
