These pieces of art are large wood carvings carved from tree stumps throughout the park. Many of them remaining where the tree once stood, roots still in the ground holding the carving upright. Most of the pieces are carved using chainsaws. Chainsaw carving is practiced in many parts of the world.
If you visit Bute Park here is some of the art you can look for/at.
The artist of this piece had a large canvas to work with and chose to leave some parts of the tree trunk in its original form.
Here a some details of the above piece -
