Steve was commissioned
to photograph “The Shape of the Century” Sculpture exhibition in Salisbury and discovered that he really liked some sculpture and also enjoyed photographing it. The National Trust commissioned him to photograph the Somerset sculptor Tim Lees working on a replacement sculpture of Lord Cobham and Steve also photographed the Salisbury Cathedral stonemasons at work. He used light creatively to bring out the 3 dimensionality of sculpture and explored his subjects from every angle.

The Embrace.
“Returning to Embrace”, by Jon Buck. Installed on the front lawn of Salisbury Museum as part of the 1999 Salisbury Festival’s “The Shape of the Century” sculpture exhibition.
