Africa is where I sport up; it's a place that completely fills me with excitement. I enjoy the heat, the thorns, the smells. To me, it's all hugely evocative. African wildlife is so diverse; 6:18 is such a movement, such a lot of character. All these things, to me, make sculpture.

I'm markers. I mean, it's got them. I'm here specifically looking for one very big elephant or one ton. Next month, next year, there may never be another animal this scale. So, I think in a way, it's almost a sort of capturing a moment in time. I want to find one of these magnificent animals.

[Music] If every sculptor works in his own way, but for me, to get out into the field and really look for common priest faced with the fun subject matter is by far the best approach. Because, you have to really work with my local guide for this trip.

He is a wonderful man called James. He was born a reporter very near to here. He could read the ground; he can read the store, he can read the prints through the dust. He knew where and how to look. His territory is big; it's that for me, 150 kilometers long. You know, he's dominant in the areas here, maybe somewhere chasing around Venus.

These are the things that I, as a guest, really would never be able to access. I take my wire and my plasticine and make field studies of the animals I'm after. These field studies are already a three-dimensional form of sketching.

There are my sketches, round use for the war finished work and studio; that can be almost valuable because it captures the spirit of split second. Their movement is sexual; I love the complete that big sculpture. That big sculpture is really good.

[Music] One time, is the big dollar mail in this district. Apparently, he disappears for days at a time. So, I'm hoping, hoping, hoping that he comes back to water or something. To me, it's everything that you're learning on the journey: the environment that you're walking through, the temperatures that you use, the coal, the dust, the plains of mountains, the rocks. All these things are telling you the story about that hair.

[Music] At one time, one done. Oh, what a boy! Wow! I am just enjoying this. When you find your subject, you are on edge. You're so tuned up. Soon that little sighting of an extraordinary magnificent beast that you've been hunting for weeks to find is really the veteran.

The left task can weigh up to 80 kilos. Yeah, take your calculator. The left task is worth eight hundred thousand US dollars. It's more than gold, and that's why these guys are disappearing.

When I'm very alarming yet, about fifty years ago guys like one time, there were thousands. But now, as we talk in this ecosystem which is 2 million acres, we only have two; really sad.

[Music] But I got now, Jews to instantly look it in my eyes, my mind of the camera. Yeah, and I couldn't afford it, room right? Because then when I get back home into my studio, I should go just record everything right.

I got it; since it's a little funny and sculpt a huge elephant, it does add a little bit of adrenaline rush budget, but it has a little of reality.

[Music] It's an animal that is full, probably as full of emotions as we are as human beings. And yes, it's a beast that soon is those emotions and his movements that I want to Tran betray in province as a marker of fueling remaining really big elephant that exists on this planet.

I pay much; do not try smooth. I might be starting to almost photographic detail. That's not me at all. The message I'm trying to give is one of movement, of life.

It's rarely being in the field would you see this movement life in its extreme as it is different. You lose these little bliss's terms that you would never see unless you are matches.

They're very taking it in; it's all actually this one smidge away from the environment being part of a sculpture.

[Music] [Laughter] [Music] you [Music] you [Music] you
