Paul Burton is a British sculptor renowned for his unique “Earthlight” sculptures, which integrate materials such as slate, silica, steel, lead, and crystal. These works are designed to reflect the earth’s natural resources and are often positioned to capture the rising or setting sun, creating a powerful visual impact.

Before dedicating himself to sculpture, Paul enjoyed a successful international career in the mining supply industry. His extensive travels and experiences in diverse environments, from the Gobi Desert to the Arctic Circle, have significantly influenced his artistic vision. Drawing from his background in mineral extraction, his sculptures often prompt viewers to consider the environmental implications of resource management.

Paul’s work is showcased at various exhibitions around the country where his pieces are displayed. Additionally, his home and garden at Kenswick Manor in Worcestershire serve as a personal exhibition space, allowing visitors to experience his art in a natural setting. The Kenswick Manor west wing Garden, designed and constructed by multi Chelsea Gold medal garden designer Peter Dowle, provides an excellent backdrop to Paul’s individual work and is a great place to visit to meet Paul and view his work.

For those interested in commissioning a bespoke piece, Paul welcomes collaborations. He encourages potential clients to visit his Worcestershire location to engage directly with his work, ensuring a personalised and interactive experience.

Paul Burtons sculptures offer a distinctive perspective on the intersection of natural resources and art, inviting contemplation on humanity’s relationship with the environment.
