Panter & Hall
Out of the Woods is conceived as a great rewilding of Panter & Hall’s elegant gallery in Pall Mall. The animals and birds have shunned pedestals, and are climbing up the shelves and running across the floor.

Per Quelli Che Volano
Sophie Dickens took her paintings and sculptures out in the streets of the town where she lives and works, turning these old remote streets into a manifestation of art and music for her community.
ABOUT
Abstract geometric shapes of curved wood attached to an armature create a flowing, muscular form.
Sophie Dickens is a contemporary British sculptor. Her exuberant, instantly recognisable sculptures have graced cathedrals and enlivened skylines from London to Los Angeles. Brought together by energy and wit, her body of work is expansive and restless, covering a wide range of abstract and figurative subjects, classical and de-pedestals, herd and pack installations, athletes, gods and lovers. She lives and works in Liguria, with her husband and various animals.

The Artist Studio
"Her studio resembles the den of a sorceress, the same as a child would imagine: potions, pieces of wood, cobwebs, metal, canvases, easels, old and worn furniture, disturbingly motionless animals in the corners, not because of a spell but because they were shaped from wood by her skilled hands. You
get there after a curve, valleys and greenery, taking a
paved road that you walk along on foot..."
