Wicker Man Sculpture

About Wicker Man Sculpture

The Wickerman is a sculpture made from wicker, by Trevor Leats. Trevor and his company, 'Leatrigg', have become well known for making similar sculpters, that are used as dramatic and beautiful burning figures at Scotland's 'Wickerman Festival'. There is a sense of ritual as the 10m high sculptures are set on fire and then spectacularly burnt. The 1973 British folk horror film, The Wicker Man, was also largely set in Dumfries and Galloway.
