Nic Fiddian Green’s work exists in quiet conversation with antiquity. His equine heads distill the horse into an image of stillness, gravity, and enduring spiritual presence.
Working in bronze and stone, including yellow onyx and patinas, Fiddian Green approaches sculpture with a classical sensibility shaped by deep engagement with ancient form. His equine heads are reduced to essential volumes, allowing scale, proportion, and surface to carry the emotional and symbolic weight of the work.
The horse in his practice is not treated as portrait, but as archetype. These sculptures evoke strength, reverence, and contemplative stillness rather than narrative or motion. Their power comes through restraint, making them especially resonant within equestrian culture’s long relationship to lineage and dignity.
What distinguishes Fiddian Green is his conceptual clarity. Over decades, he has returned to the equine head with unwavering commitment, refining it into a sculptural language that feels both contemporary and timeless.

A distilled equine head that functions less as portrait than as contemplative presence.
Fiddian Green’s command of bronze and stone reflects a direct respect for sculptural history and material discipline. Surfaces are intentional, volumes carefully distilled, and every formal decision contributes to a sense of permanence rather than spectacle.
These sculptures should be encountered with time and space around them. Their stillness is part of their effect. In person, scale, shadow, and material luminosity shape the experience more powerfully than images can fully convey.
