North London Hospice was thrilled when Matt Lucas sent us an owl design and we knew we had to have it as part of the trail. We commissioned Donna Newman, one of Wild in Art’s sculpture specialists, to bring Matt’s owl to 3D life. In Donna’s realisation of Matt’s Owl, she tried to capture the sense of vibrancy and fun from his design. The sculpture is a real explosion of colour, featuring a kaleidoscope of feathers.
