Aim

Help rescue a life-sized Goose sculpture by funding the mould and casting, so it can find a permanent public home


Help Save the Goose

A sculpture deserves a future

Every sculpture has a story.

This life-sized Goose began as an exciting commissioned artwork. Weeks of designing, sculpting and refining every feather, curve and expression have brought it to the stage where it is ready for the next chapter.

Sadly, circumstances beyond anyone's control have changed that story. The client who commissioned the piece has had to withdraw, leaving the sculpture without the funding needed to complete the mould and casting process.

Rather than allowing months of creative work to remain unfinished, I have decided to ask for your help.

Why this Goose matters

This isn't simply a sculpture of a goose.

It's a celebration of character, humour and craftsmanship. Created entirely by hand, every detail has been carefully modelled in clay to give the sculpture personality and presence. My hope has always been that it would become a piece that people smile at, photograph, talk about and enjoy for many years.

With your support, that can still happen.

What your support will fund

The next stages are highly specialised and essential:

  • Professional mould making
  • Casting the sculpture
  • Preparing the finished artwork for installation
  • Giving the Goose the opportunity to find its permanent public home

These are the most expensive parts of producing a sculpture, but they are also the stages that transform a clay original into a lasting artwork.

The vision

My dream is for this Goose to become a sculpture that people can visit—a piece installed in a public space, sculpture garden, visitor attraction, nature reserve, country park or community venue where it can be enjoyed by thousands of people.

Supporters won't simply be helping finish a sculpture—they'll be helping launch its journey into the world.

Follow the journey

Throughout the campaign I'll be sharing videos and photographs showing the sculpture being created, transported and prepared for casting, together with behind-the-scenes insights into the sculpting process.

If you can contribute, thank you.

If you can't donate today, sharing this project is another wonderful way to help.

Together we can make sure this Goose gets the future it deserves.
