ARTIST'S STATEMENT

"I'm inspired by the figurative work of Rodin, which combines artistic detail with human emotion, which I feel is essential for the birth of great art. Learning and evolving from the study of artists like Rodin is my daily goal.

In the bust of Dylan Thomas I tried to represent the great poet in a forlorn pose. This, I feel, was a strong emotional characteristic within the man and I hope that I have conveyed that feeling within the bust.

Whilst many monumental sculptures are technically precise, I belive that they often lack an emotional element which invokes life within the piece."
Ceri Hopkin

Ceri Hopkin has studied sculpture at Swansea Art College (Llwyn-Y-Bryn) and discovered a latent talent for the discipline as a mature student.
His recent work has concentrated upon busts of Swansea's Dylan Thomas and he has exhibited in and around Swansea, including the Dylan Thomas Centre in Swansea and the Dylan Thomas boathouse in Laugharne.
