Rabbitwoman and Dogman

Who Are Rabbitwoman and Dogman?

Rabbitwoman and Dogman are the autobiographical characters created by Gillie and Marc. More than sculptures, they are symbols of love, diversity, acceptance, and the belief that our differences can bring us together rather than pull us apart.

Their story is inspired by Gillie and Marc themselves. Gillie grew up in England and Marc in Australia. Gillie is Catholic and Marc is Jewish. They come from different backgrounds, cultures, and experiences, yet they have built a life together based on friendship, understanding, and love.

In nature, a dog would chase a rabbit. They are not supposed to be friends. But in the world of Rabbitwoman and Dogman, opposites come together. Their relationship reminds us that our differences do not have to divide us. Instead, they can become our greatest strength.

Rabbitwoman and Dogman are also hybrids — half human and half animal. They represent the deep connection between people and the natural world, reminding us that we are all part of the same living planet. Through their adventures, they travel the world as wildlife warriors, inspiring people to care about endangered animals and protect the wild places we all depend on.

The inspiration for their animal heads came from a trip Gillie and Marc made to Egypt more than a decade ago. They were fascinated by ancient Egyptian art, where gods and powerful figures were often depicted with animal heads and human bodies. The belief was that the human would adopt the qualities and spirit of the animal. Gillie and Marc embraced this idea, choosing a rabbit and a Weimaraner dog as their alter egos. These characters became a reflection of their personalities, values, and the life they have built together.

Today, Rabbitwoman and Dogman have become beloved symbols around the world, carrying a simple but powerful message: love is stronger than difference, and together we can create a kinder world for both people and wildlife.

His Story
Dogman was inspired by Marc himself and reflects many of the qualities that have guided him throughout his life. His dog head is that of a Weimaraner, a breed known for its loyalty, intelligence, strength, and deep devotion to family.

The character was inspired by a journey Gillie and Marc made to Egypt more than a decade ago. They were fascinated by ancient Egyptian art, where human bodies were combined with animal heads to represent the spirit and qualities of that animal. Marc chose the Weimaraner as his alter ego because it reflected many of the values he admired most — loyalty, courage, friendship, and an adventurous spirit.

Dogman's Message
"The strongest people are not those who stand alone, but those who stand beside others when it matters most."
