Ramsay Gillies is a Scottish maker whose folk-art-inspired sculptures are full of personality. Working with painted and aged metal, Ramsay creates pieces that draw on the tradition of old weathervanes and country-house curiosities. They have the charm of antique finds, but with a fresh sense of humour and invention. or Almanac, he has made a small number of distinctive pieces that sit somewhere between sculpture, folk art and decorative object. Each one is made by hand, with its own quirks, surface and character - the kind of thing that brings instant life to a room.
