Ian Edwards
Leap of Faith

About the Item

‘ In the expression of our heart’s desires, we take the Leap of Faith.’ Leap of Faith Sculpture is from a limited edition of 12. British artist Ian Edwards creates contemporary figurative bronze sculptures that represent the endeavour of the human spirit. “My journey of self-discovery has empowered my expression of my work.” Inspired by nature’s primal essence, an initial wildlife collection paved the way to his true calling, sculpting meaningful figurative works and exhibiting them to an international clientele. For Ian, the organic physicality of a sculpture is intertwined with nature: “It is very innate, but it is always present in me and my work.” His symbolic pieces are imbued with a sense of true insight into the human condition. Each one explores the universal theme of becoming the greatest version of yourself and finding fulfilment in one form or another: starting from scratch, gaining through suffering, and achieving success.
