GILLIE AND MARC Resin Sculpture - Splash Pop City Pup Retro Funk

British and Australian artists, Gillie and Marc have been called “the most successful and prolific creators of public art in New York’s History” by the New York Times. Creating some of the world’s most innovative public sculptures, Gillie and Marc are redefining what public art should be, spreading messages of love, equality, and conservation around the world. Their highly coveted sculptures and paintings can be seen in art galleries and public sites in over 250 cities.

The artists are best known for their beloved characters, Rabbitwoman and Dogman, who tell the autobiographical tale of two opposites coming together to become best friends and soul mates. As unlikely animal kingdom companions, the Rabbit and the Dog stand for diversity and acceptance through love. Gillie and Marc believe art is a powerful platform for change. Their art is multi-disciplinary, paying homage to the importance of togetherness, as well as the magnificence of the natural world, and the necessity of preserving it – for we are it, and it is us.

Whenever Dogman went to the city he always turned heads. He had a wonderful sense of style and wasn’t afraid to go bold. Today he was channelling his inner pop artist. He wanted to mix bright colours with fun patterns, making a statement that nobody could miss. There were so many patterns he could choose from; should he go for dots, flowers, or maybe garden ferns?
