A herd of elephants crossed her path, led by the matriarch, and one calf fell behind without noticing until it did, then broke into what Bryant calls a panicky run. The matriarch heard its squeal, came back for it, and pulled it in under her legs with a cuff of her trunk. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sculpture holds that instant of the calf's dash, ears out, legs stretched, urgency in every line. Resin lets Bryant model the loose, wrinkled skin of a young elephant convincingly at this scale, and the piece works as a standalone study of movement even without the full story behind it. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eElephant's Child is one of the larger pieces in the collection at 80 cm long, and one of twenty sculptures across Benguela Cove Lagoon Wine Estate for '\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca title=\"Where the wild things come to rest\" href=\"https:\/\/benguelacove.co.za\/pages\/carol-bryant-sculpture-artist-exhibition\"\u003eWhere the wild things come to rest\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e', on show from 2 October 2026 to 31 March 2027.

Crossing our path they were led by the matriarch. This little elephant was left behind. Minutes later, when he realised this, he broke into a panicky run. The matriarch heard his squeal, came to meet him and gave him a cuff with her trunk before tucking him in under her legs.
