Sophie Howard

New Tango Dancers

Sophie works in terracotta, bronze resin and porcelain but, though her use of medium may vary, each piece is very much an expression of her passion for exploring her world through sculpture. Recently she has been exploring the essence of tango dancing creating her own interpretation of the movement and connection between the dancers. Her new original pieces are shown below.

Also new are the original boat studies. Each row boat has something different happening onboard and we have shown just a few examples of what Sophie is up to with these.

Artist Details: Sophie's sculpture explores the body, its form, movement and spirit, and our human rapport with animals and each other. The sculpture is not useful, but seeks to be essential.

Making original pieces and editions in ceramics, bronze, resin and stone, willow and found materials, she explores themes and materials, stillness and motion, bodies and patterns.

Born in Dorset in 1957, and growing up in Yorkshire, Sophie studied at Winchester School of Art, moved to London, and then Bristol in1987.

Teaching art for twenty years, and a creative industries business advisor, Sophie has sculpture in galleries across the UK.
