STUDIO AND LOCATION
Laurence Edwards’s studio and Foundry works are situated on the edge of the beautiful Butley creek in Suffolk (UK). It’s habitat landscape and histories have developed into the main resource for his work. His work attempts to do justice to the locality and its history, by peopling it with large figures that have survived the ravages of the water and the elements.
Projects underway at the moment are:
'Giants' three 8ft figures to be floated on a raft up the Alde to Snape Maltings (Suffolk) for the Aldeburgh Festival this June.
'Orion' a 9ft bronze figure commissioned to be placed in the Pyranees in France. in July this year.
'Marsh maquettes' support work and studies for current projects, and a Film discussing the projects in general.
