Lonsdale

Lonsdale is a sculptor based in Durham, England, known for his large-scale works that often explore themes of connection and relationships. His notable piece, The Big Dance, features interlocking hands and serves as a symbolic backdrop for wedding photographs in Gretna Green, a famous site for elopements. Recently, he has sought recognition and compensation for what he claims is a copyright infringement of his design in a New Zealand sculpture, Togetherness, leading to a public dispute over artistic rights.
