(British, born 1963)
Horse and Rider, 1995, edition 2/9, signed on proper right back hoof "Ryder 95" , patinated bronze, 29 x 32 x 14 in., with acrylic pedestal, 33-1/8 x 22-1/8 x 12-1/8 in.
Horse and Rider is one of the few humans that Ryder has created that doesn’t wear a mask. Most of Ryder’s figures have minotaur or hare masks.
“I add the objects to create a more interesting texture and to add an element of fun. Some of the objects are everyday things that have broken or that I found relevant to that year or my children’s favourite toys (they weren’t too happy about that).
Some of the pieces are from other sculptures and I often feel like using them again. It’s like I want to add graffiti to my work so that the surface has a story as well as the sculpture itself.” - Sophie Ryder
