Sally Matthews (sculptor)

Sally Matthews (born 1964) is an English sculptor, known particularly for sculptures of animals, which stand in locations in the UK.

[2] Matthews has written: "My work is in praise of animals, to remind us of our spiritual and physical need for them and the incalculable example their nature provides us with.

"[4] Her works include the following: Sculptures in Grizedale Forest in Cumbria are "Wild Boar" (1988), "Wolves" (1990) and "A Cry in the Wilderness" (1993).

The sculptures were funded by the European Union, Lincolnshire County Council and the East Midlands development agency.

An inscription tells that after working hard through the summer season on the beach, the donkeys crossed here on their way to local pasture for the winter.
