Playtime - Craig Hudson

Sale Price: £1,700.00 Original Price: £1,900.00

Craig Hudson’s sculpture plays with confusion and contradiction. He subverts the expectations of bronze, a medium that has been used to depict classical characters from Greek and Roman mythology, with their perfect and immortal forms. His figures are human and flawed, with a mix of naivety and vulnerability, strength and capability. Hudson’s work, like the artist, is quiet and yet cool, immersed in popular culture references that are instantly engaging.

Playtime

29 x 15 x 20 cm

Edition of 1/1 (unique sculpture)

Original cast bronze sculpture

Playtime is a one-of-a-kind bronze sculpture by Craig Hudson that captures the magic of childhood imagination. Cloaked in a simple sheet, the figure recalls the joy of make-believe, when we could become ghosts, superheroes, or anything we dreamed.

Depending on the viewer, the works read as playful, eerie, or both, echoing the way children’s games can slip between imagination and something unknowable. Hudson uses the weight and permanence of bronze to embody fleeting childhood moments, where simple props transformed our world. This work invites the viewer to reconnect with a time of boundless creativity and unfiltered wonder, reminding us that play is a powerful, transformative force, and that the spirit of imagination is never far away.
