Sculpture in the Snow

October 25, 2011
Escape the frenzied world of today to a land full of tranquillity and peace. Sculpture by the Lakes, near Dorchester, is a place that allows you to share in the beauty of nature, harmonised with the art of man.

Simon Gudgeon, an artist and sculptor of international renown, and his wife Monique have created a haven, a feast for the senses. His sculptures seem perfectly at home in the serene landscape that they have so thoughtfully created together. This is not like any other gallery and you are encouraged to simply allow yourself to feel, think, reflect and enjoy, without walls, without limits, without crowds. Don't expect
interpretation or labels.

Set in 26 acres of pools, lakes, ponds and the meandering river Frome, follow paths that meander through lush meadows, enchanted woods and over beautiful bridges. Encounter wildlife and outdoor sculpture that will both surprise you and lift your soul. The colours of the seasons and the light of the day turn this place into a dynamic, magical and ever-changing experience.

Visitors have described Sculpture by the Lakes as “a wonderful, magical place- so relaxing and the sculptures are beautiful,” ““a truly inspirational and tranquil experience” and described Gudgeon as an “absolute genius!”
Spend an hour, spend a day, take a picnic. Just relax and enjoy the experience.
