Biography
Biography
Fred was born in 1993. After having completed a foundation diploma in Art and Design at Falmouth University, he graduated from the University of Edinburgh in July 2017 with a 2:1 MA(Hons) in French and History of Art.
Having lived in the countryside all his life, Fred was exposed to and inspired by the natural world from an early age. To begin with, he primarily used drawing as a way of capturing the essence of his subjects, however, in 2011, he turned to sculpture to better capture the intricacies of the anatomy and the movement inherent in the wildlife he observed.
Working first in clay or wax, he uses quick and fluid gestures to capture the motion and vitality of the subject, the piece is then cast in bronze. To further understand the complex moulding and lost-wax casting process, Fred has adopted a hands-on approach and works part time at a local foundry where some of his pieces are moulded and cast.
