Gus Farnes is a contemporary sculptor living and working in Suffolk. Gus sculpts figures that explore the human condition, responding to geopolitics and the concerns of our times. His work delves into our connection to one another and our relationship to the environments and landscapes we inhabit.

Gus sculpts using materials selected from his local situation; remnants from a landscape, found objects collaged, bound together, and fixed with wax on an intimate and monumental scale and by casting these combustible sculptures directly to bronze creates a body of unique work.

He cast his first bronze sculpture at the age of 16 which led him to Norwich School of Art in 2000 where he was mentored by Chris Summerfield (Ma Rca Moore scholarship) and Laurence Edwards (Ma Rca Moore scholarship). After leaving Norwich, he worked at  Sotheby’s in London as a graphic artist.
In 2016 Gus left Sotheby’s  to pursue his practice as a sculptor, and built himself a studio and foundry in Snape, Suffolk. 
​
His sculptures have been acquired for private collections throughout Europe, the US, Asia and Australasia.
