What Kinds of Sculptures Does Hamish Mackie Create, and in What Materials?

Updated

Hamish Mackie is an Oxfordshire-based sculptor known for bronze animal and wildlife sculptures, along with figurative works, held in public and private collections worldwide. His sculptures are cast in bronze, silver, or stainless steel and released as limited editions—for example, the featured 2026 pieces are each numbered editions of 12. If you want to see the range, the site's Featured Sculptures section and "View All Sculptures" page are the places to start.

Subject Matter

Mackie's work centres on animals and wildlife, with figurative pieces alongside. The current featured sculptures give a sense of the range:

Sculpture Year Material Edition
Red Stag Scaled 2026 Bronze Numbered edition of 12
Barn Owl Landing 2026 Bronze Numbered edition of 12
Grouse Brood 2026 Bronze Numbered edition of 12
Crab 2026 Bronze Numbered edition of 12

These examples show the pattern: wildlife subjects—mammals, birds, marine life—rendered as small numbered editions rather than one-offs.

Materials and Edition Format

Three casting materials are used across the body of work:

  • Bronze — the material used for all four featured 2026 pieces, and the most prominent in the portfolio.
  • Silver — offered for selected works.
  • Stainless steel — offered for selected works.

Each sculpture is a limited edition, with the featured pieces capped at 12 numbered casts. That means the form is fixed and the supply is finite, which matters if you are choosing a piece with an eye to scarcity or collecting.

Beyond the Gallery: Commissions

Mackie accepts bronze sculpture commissions for both public spaces and private collections. He works collaboratively with clients, architects, developers, interior designers, and landscape designers, and advises on installation and maintenance. If you have a specific site or subject in mind rather than buying an existing edition, the Commissions page sets out the process.
