Wilfrid, studied graphics at Central Saint Martins, then worked behind the scenes at Spitting Image, helping to create the satirical TV show's grotesque puppets. His charismatic and quirky sculptures have since been exhibited around the world. Wilfrid has created people including Angela Merkel, Wayne Rooney, his father, and Paul McCartney, and all of his work is made entirely by hand.
