“The Evolution of Empathy”Wild Dog Puppy Sculpture, by Casey Nadine Banwell the Tireless Campaigner for Animal Rights as well as being a superb Sculptress. It is in a limited edition
Casey dedicates her talents creating sculptures that generate funds to protect the species from which the piece is inspired.
Dogs are known as man’s best friend and are often remarked as empaths, their emotions mirror human emotion as they connect with us, mirroring our behaviours. A subconscious sign of empathy.
The main threats to the survival of the African wild dog, are targeted killings by humans, viral disease, and habitat loss, which mirrors the potential existential threat to humanity because of war, biotechnology, and climate change due to loss of biodiversity.
Land conflict occurs, as expanding populations of man decrease the habitat for prey, as livelihoods rest largely on livestock and agriculture. This creates loss of habitat and almost extinction for the African Wild Dog.
As we learn to empathise with their plight and strategize ways to evade their extinction, we may learn to save ourselves from our own potential destruction and perhaps in doing so, luse our technologies and learnings to harness and support the natural world, rather than destroy it and steer humanity away from its own path of extinction.

More about Casey Nadine Banwell- The ArtParkS Guarentee
All the sculptures on the website are described by the Artists themselves stating the materiel they are made from and their dimensions. If they are stated to be suitable for outdoors they have a guarentee of 10 years subject to the effects of weathering which will alter their colour and finish over the years unless you give them regular cleaning and maintenance. For instance Bronze and to a lesser extent bronze resin/cold cast bronze will aquire a green patina, usually rather sought after and all could attract moss lichen and a greeny pollen especially under trees which should be removed regularly with warm water and washing up liquid.
Iron and steel will oxidise(rust ) and this falls outside our guarentee.
Organic materiel like wood, bark willow is variable and depends to a great extent on where it is sited and you should discuss any guarentee direct with the Artist as this too falls outside our Guarentee. - How does ArtParkS protect you?
