The Elephant by Stephen Hunton, Stone Resin, Edition Unknown, 38cm high by 41cm 20wide by 25cm deep, Animals and Birds sculpture
The Elephant by Stephen Hunton is a stone resin sculpture measuring 38 cm high, 41 cm wide, and 25 cm deep. The piece shows the head of an elephant, carved with strength and care. Hunton’s work feels handcrafted, with small grooves and marks that trace every surface. These details give the sculpture a raw, expressive quality.
The elephant’s head sits proudly on a stand. Its large ears spread to each side, framing a short trunk that curls gently upward to rest against the forehead. This simple gesture adds calmness and grace. The eyes are small and focused, surrounded by carved lashes that bring quiet emotion to the face. Although stylised, the piece still captures the essence of the animal. The grooves suggest texture and folds, while the smooth areas allow light to flow easily across the form.
Furthermore, the use of stone resin adds weight and permanence. The material reflects light softly, highlighting each line and curve. As viewers move around it, the changing shadows reveal more depth and motion. Despite its modest size, the sculpture feels powerful and grounded.
Ultimately, Hunton blends strength and elegance in a balanced way. Every curve and mark contributes to a sense of calm dignity. The Elephant becomes more than a likeness, it stands as a tribute to the wisdom and quiet power of this noble creature.
