Hold Your Horses
Bronze
20cm x 16cm x 8cm
2023

In Pittock's first bronze sculpture, a pair of hand-sculpted hands gently cradle two seemingly wild horses. The piece invites the viewer to see themselves in the horses, resisting the urge to gallop at full pace. While slowing down can feel like a daunting prospect when there's such anxiety about falling behind, Hold Your Horses invites us to shift our focus away from what may be lost in the process and towards what we stand to gain. By guiding us to reassess our priorities and discover inspiration in the mundane, Hold Your Horses playfully encourages reflection on the art of slowing down.

An edition of 6. Currently on display in the exhibition Hold Your Horses, at Olsen Gallery in Sydney, from November 22nd, 2023 to December 15th, 2023.
