This handwoven willow sculpture of a stag head was inspired by Victorian game trophies and is intended to be hung on the wall. Bob’s sculptures have evolved from his mastery of traditional basket-weaving techniques used to make mummer’s masks, but unlike basketry, these contemporary pieces are innovative and original as there is no pattern to follow.

Using eight varieties of willow, this handwoven willow sculpture of a moose head drew its inspiration from Victorian game trophies. It was crafted over a wire frame to support the wide span of the rack. The process for Bob’s pieces starts with personally growing more than 40 varieties of willow, giving him a wide range of colours and textures.

Bob personally grew the willow used for weaving this life-size stag head. The dense, random, swirling weave builds up a texture full of movement. Bob creates contemporary renditions of familiar animals using age-old basket-weaving techniques that he has adapted for his innovative designs.

This wall-hung life-size head of a Highland cow is the most successful sculpture Bob has made to date. The natural colours and flowing character of the willow rods lend themselves perfectly to the handwoven piece. Using personally grown willow, Bob adapts traditional basketry techniques to create original contemporary sculptures that follow no classic pattern or formula.
