Hayley is a sculptor based in south London working in bronze and stone. Creating both figurative and ornamental work for private commissions and public installations, she finds particular interest and purpose in creating work of social and historical importance.
After studying Fine Art and working as a sculptor in the entertainment industries, Hayley studied Historic Carving at City & Guilds of London Art School (CGLAS). A QEST Scholarship supported her in her third year (2016), enabling further study and skill development.
Since CGLAS, Hayley has had the pleasure of working for, and with, fellow artisans to remake and restore a number of Britain’s heritage buildings. She has also been developing her own practice and branched out into public sculpture. Her first solo public work, a statue of Nancy Astor on Plymouth Hoe, was unveiled by Theresa May in November 2019.
