Nick Cabot

Nick Cabot is a talented artist who works from his home situated beside the sea and the lagoon in rural Hawke's Bay. His environment abounds with sea and bird life which has no doubt influenced his current specialty, this being bird sculptures individually handcrafted from previously used copper. The constantly changing character of the copper which is used means the visual look of each art piece changes accordingly over time. The sculptures can be displayed either indoors or outside. In order to ensure stability the birds are placed on a Jarra plinth and the legs are filled with lead.
