Philip Jackson

A while ago I discovered these amazing sculptures that just took my breath away! It turned out they were made by a man named Philip Jackson, and here I will show you my favorites. He does small scale work too, but it was his big, monumental works that caught my eye. They all look so mysterious, almost intimidating, behind their masks or hoods. I wouldn't want to meet one of them in a garden in the middle of the night - if I didn't already knew it was there - in that case I wouldn't mind having a few of them in my own backyard...
