House Guardians

House Guardians is a series of handmade sculptures from artist Michael Upton. A project that sprang from a pure desire to play and a love for folk and outsider art, each sculpture is created using natural elements – mortar, wood, copper, fire –and cast in a way in which the final result is somewhat of a surprise, with a personality all its own.
With their piercing pewter eyes and singular expressions, it’s easy to believe each sculpture indeed serves the purpose traditional cultures believed such house guardians did – observing, protecting, and influencing all that happens within the boundaries of their domain.
