Design Philosophy
Phoenix Sculptures make garden sculptures from recycled materials, they are a byproduct of the amazing props made by our sister company, Podpadstudios. The props are made for film, TV and exhibitions, they include animatronic dragons, futuristic flying cars, batmobiles, droids and robots. Phoenixsculptures
We believe that all objects deserve to be fully used for their lifetime, and wherever possible we recycle every item that comes into the studio. Whether we are making a batmobile or a 8 foot long ‘baby’ dragon by hand, planning is essential. Generally we only purchase the items necessary to make the prop - however sometimes it's best to purchase in bulk or obtain a complete item which we modify, an example of this would be purchasing a donor vehicle when making a film inspired car. We also have a network of followers who often offer us items they no longer need which we would generally accept if we can use them for a build.
The net result of this is that Podpadstudios and Phoenix Sculptures have the resources for making props and sculptures alike. This means that when you purchase a sculpture from us each piece is unique and has its own rich history.
