Horseshoe bats are in decline in the UK, and their main stronghold is in the South West, where I live. We need to raise awareness that a lack of roost sites and crashing insect biodiversity is something we call all help with.
I loved sculpting this piece, largely for carving those delicate fingers which make up their wings. They must surely have the biggest hand to body ratio!
This is my only bas relief where the animal isn't breaking out of the frame, as the body and wings fill a square frame perfectly.
