Item details
“A short time ago I met an architect who told me the beautiful history of the Middle Eastern salukis. He told me that the saluki bloodlines had been kept pure over thousands of years – through careful breeding and gifting them only to people worthy of them.
I have sculpted many dogs, mostly bespoke pieces, and I find it thrilling to discover an animal or a dog that evokes emotion with its spirit and form. I was particularly inspired by the images and story of the Shajarat-al-Hayat (‘Tree of Life’), in Bahrain. Seeing salukis in such a stunning setting, and picturing these magnificent dogs running across the desert, evoked a vivid picture in my mind, which I sought to pour into this saluki statue. Having loved sculpting this piece, I’m now tempted to sculpt a saluki, or perhaps a pair running together, at life-size, or larger.”
