Simon creates large installations for both the public and private sector. From the roots of traditional carving Simon specializes in figurative, interactive pieces that are developed through a constant flow of dialogue between himself and the client or community he is working with.
After an initial consultation Simon can produce detailed drawings of the sculptures and agree size, price, wood used and time scale before commencing work.
Simon's carvings are unique creations that have been researched so that they not only tell a story but also catch the imagination of all who see them.
Simon has full public liability and has chainsaw certification.
Simon has recently been commissioned to carve a children's storytelling chair for a country park in the Vale of Glamorgan. Watch Simon Hedger facebook page for photographs as it develops...
