James Doran-Webb's Animal Sculptures

Animalier is a 120-page photographic collection of James Doran-Webb's driftwood sculptures.

Many of the photographs were created by taking the sculptures into carefully chosen natural settings. From transporting large works to remote locations to waiting for the right light and conditions, each photograph reflects the considerable effort behind capturing the sculptures in their surroundings.

The book brings together a selection of these photographs, offering a closer look at James's work beyond the studio.
