Mark Hodson – Sculptor
Mark is based in Long Bennington, Lincolnshire, with his wife Amy and budgie Monty. He is a retired handyman and originally trained in the Royal Navy as a Marine Engineering Artificer. Honing his craft in metal work and copper smithing allowed Mark to explore the diversity of metal components and how they respond to each other. By using these skills he has found an art in the creative expression of recycling discarded metal objects. Whether they be nuts and bolts, garden implements, old boiler casings or broken tools, which have no further use in the traditional sense, working from his own drawings and hand made templates, Mark transforms them into beautiful flowers, animals, birds and abstract figures. Materials are reliably sourced from the locality and many pieces are 100 percent recycled. Commissions are welcome and any ideas open to discussion, so do not hesitate to make contact if interested in a bespoke sculpture.
