SUMMARY:Art Sharks
DESCRIPTION:Join us at Moray Art Centre for an extraordinary exhibition fea
 turing various sculptures meticulously crafted by Scott Gleed.\nScott's jo
 urney to becoming a sculptor is as remarkable as his creations. A former R
 oyal Marines Commando\, he faced adversity head-on after a helicopter inci
 dent left him paralysed from the waist down for nearly two years. Undeterr
 ed\, Scott returned to combat service before finding solace and inspiratio
 n in the world of art. Retraining in Combat Intelligence and target model 
 making\, he honed his skills and discovered his true calling as a sculptor
 .\nDriven by his passion for conservation\, especially within the marine e
 nvironment and endangered species\, Scott infuses his artworks with powerf
 ul environmental messages. Through collaborations with UK wildlife and con
 servation organisations\, he raises awareness about the beauty and fragili
 ty of the animal world.\n&nbsp\;\n\n\n\n&nbsp\;\nUsing a diverse range of 
 materials and techniques\, Scott creates mesmerising pieces that evoke won
 der and awe. From intricate sculptures to educational installations\, each
  work showcases his unparalleled talent and dedication to his craft.\nScot
 t's contributions extend beyond the art world as he works closely with org
 anisations like The Bite Back\, Sea Shepherd\, and Manta Trust. Through hi
 s art\, he supports numerous charities\, giving back to causes close to hi
 s heart.\nImmerse yourself in a world where art and conservation converge.
  Don't miss this opportunity to witness the beauty of the ocean brought to
  life through Scott's remarkable sculptures. These creations capture the e
 ssence of marine life in ways that defy imagination. Whether you're a seas
 oned diver or an art enthusiast\, his work promises to entertain and inspi
 re\, leaving you with a newfound appreciation for the wonders of our ocean
