Adrian Gray (sculptor)

Adrian Gray (born in Bristol in 1961) is a British sculptor. Gray started creating stone balancing sculptures in 2002.[1][2][3] His work is predominantly sculpture and photography based on the natural world of balance. He creates balancing sculptures using naturally weathered stone usually on location by the coast. As the sculptures are transitory he captures them on film as evidence of their existence.(see galleries on website). To show live examples of his work he performs stone balancing/ rock balancing demonstrations where he creates new sculptures on site. In the past 8 years his work has evolved to include new ideas and themes, but the predominant feature remains the beauty and seemingly impossible nature of balance. His sculptures for the garden and indoors are previously balanced compositions fixed permanently in position. The owners of the sculptures have a film of them being created/balanced to remind them of their once precarious state.

He is based in Devon and his work is in public and private spaces nationwide.[4]
