Description
Hippo Saved You a Seat, Saving the Best Bite for You is a playful and beautiful interactive bronze bench celebrating one of Africa’s most extraordinary animals. Sitting happily on the bench and saving the best bite just for you, the hippo leaves an open space beside them, inviting visitors to sit down, interact and become part of the artwork. Designed to create a meaningful connection between people and wildlife, the sculpture combines Gillie and Marc’s signature humour with their lifelong passion for conservation. By bringing people physically closer to these incredible animals through art, the artists hope to inspire greater love, curiosity and a desire to protect wildlife and their habitats.
Both a functional bench and a striking bronze sculpture, this joyful work brings together art, wildlife and human connection, creating an unforgettable addition to a garden, public space or private collection.
