The samurai was a warrior class within the ancient Japanese society. They lived by a code called “bushido” which means “the way of the warrior”.
This particular sculpture is of a samurai not in armour but in a richly decorated traditional kimono. The sculpture shows the strength through his stern gaze. The strength comes from years of martial arts training and discipline.
Inspiration from black and white samurai movies directed by Akira Kurosawa and starring Toshiro Mifune.

The geishas are traditional female entertainers who act as hosts. Geishas spend many years to learn dance, singing and playing musical instruments as well as being poets and calligraphers.
The geishas are noted for their white powdered faces, their richly embroidered kimonos and defined hairstyles.
This sculpture shows the geisha with eyes lowered and a gentle smile.
The inspiration for this sculpture came from a simple question from my daughter – “why is it that there are no female sculptures?”
