Sculpture
at Doddington
Every summer, the gardens at Doddington Hall are transformed into a beautiful backdrop for our annual sculpture exhibition.
From July to September, our walled gardens and romantic wild garden are filled with incredible works of art. Created by artists from across the UK and beyond, these striking sculptures encourage you to explore the gardens in a new and intriguing way.
Curators David Waghorne and Kate McGovern carefully select national and international sculptors to complement each area of the garden, creating an eclectic exhibition to suit a wide range of tastes, styles and budgets.
There are hundreds of sculptures on display, with surprises at every turn. Larger pieces are placed throughout the gardens, while the Stable Yard Gallery showcases a captivating selection of smaller-scale works.
Almost every piece in the exhibition is for sale - an investment that will bring enjoyment to your home or garden, while also supporting the career of the sculptor.

2026 Artists
Seamus Moran
Seamus Moran has been producing sculpture since 2001, exhibiting widely through galleries and solo shows. Much of his work originates from resin and iron casts taken from naturally weathered knots found in dead trees, alongside materials such as furniture mouldings, steel, leather, bone and shell. These diverse elements give his sculptures a strong sense of history, process and transformation.
Brendon Murless
Brendon creates sculptures for both indoor and outdoor settings, which range from small mantlepiece-sized to large-scale, garden and public sculptures. Taking inspiration from the human form and beauty within nature, his work explores the body in different forms, poses and materials, emphasising the integral connection between humans and nature. While he starts sculptures with an idea or theme, he also leaves them open to interpretation by the viewer.
Bradley Parrott
Bradley Parrott is a visionary sculpture artist known for creating bold, one-of-a-kind stainless steel sculptures that combine engineering precision with raw artistic expression.
Caroline Russell
Caroline Russell is a British sculptor based in London and has worked professionally since 1993. She is a member of the Royal Society of Sculptors and graduated from the University of Leeds, later continuing her sculptural training through private study with Patricia Finch FRSS. Russell works across a wide range of materials including clay, plaster, stone, bronze, bronze resin and jesmonite. Her work has been exhibited widely in galleries and exhibitions throughout Britain and is held in private collections internationally. Small‑scale sculptures often form the starting point for larger works.
Samar Sharif
Samar Sharif lives and sculpts in the Warwickshire countryside. She began sculpting stone under the tutelage of sculptor and artist Jude Tucker and has been sculpting now for 14 years. Samar works in a variety of stones but favours Alabaster in its many different forms. She sculpts these into abstract pieces, which are inspired by the flow and movement within the stone. This allows her sculptures and the nature of the stone to work in synchronicity. This creates a calmness and relaxing serenity to her work, which in turn gives a tactile aspect to it.
Jane Shaw
Jane Shaw discovered her love for sculpture during her school days in Gloucestershire, thanks to a talented sculpture teacher who greatly inspired her. After obtaining a History of Art degree from Manchester University, Jane began her career with a fine art valuation and consulting firm in London.
