Shaun Brosnan is a sculptor living and working in south London, born in 1961.
He graduated in 1982 with a B.A.(hons) in Fine Art from the University of Northumbria.
Shaun has work in public and private collections and was elected MRSS
(Member of the Royal Society of British Sculptors).
Shaun Brosnan makes bas-relief and free standing unique works of art by hand beating pieces of sheet lead with hammers and traditional wooden mallets. They range in size from domestic interior and garden pieces, to monumental site specific, architectural works.
His creations are figurative and mainly focus on the human face and body. Brosnan has exhibited internationally and has work in two public museums in England.
The lead sheets are often from reclaimed sources so have a beautiful inherent patina of age and history and a very fragile quality. Brosnan uses this to full effect to create incredibly sensitive and tender sculptures that also express strength and a real sense of timelessness. He also creates limited edition cold cast metal pieces with beautiful patinated finishes
