Description
Grounded, textured and full of personality, this bronze toad is a celebration of surface and mass. Bibby revels in the animal’s distinctive skin, modelling the raised textures and rounded forms with confidence and clarity. The mottled green-brown patina enhances the tactile quality of the surface, encouraging close viewing and an appreciation of the sculpture’s physicality. Despite its low stance, the toad possesses a strong presence, conveyed through its broad body and steady, forward gaze.
