Heinrich is a South African sculptor whose keen eye for nature is accurately reproduced in his detailed works.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
From the age of 11, Heinrich has had an abiding love of nature, nurtured by his brother-in-law, a wildlife vet who took him on game walks and introduced him to the wildlife he tended in South Africa's private game reserves. After university, he headed out into the bush, opting for life as a safari guide. Being able to scour the African bush in search of its abundant wildlife was like coming home. Heinrich would spend 12 years as a professional safari guide leading luxury mobile safaris and expeditions across South Africa and Botswana's Okavango Delta and also worked in a series of luxury safari camps.
Returning 12 years later to South Africa with his young family, equipped with skills he honed over the years Heinrich took up a challenge to make his own work and took to it like a duck to water. Taking inspiration from the bush and his previous experience as a safari guide he naturally took up wildlife sculpting. Heinrich's love for silver made it possible for him to manifest his keen eye for detail and craftsmanship as each piece is individually chased and finished by the sculptor himself.
The artist would like to establish silver as a medium for sculpture in South Africa as it is relatively rare and not yet widely appreciated.
