Resilient
We are delighted to invite you to the opening of 'Resilient' a solo exhibition by Antonius Roberts. In this exhibition, Roberts will unveil sculptures made with found and felled silk-cotton, madeira, logwood, lignum vitae and woman’s-tongue. He carves into the trees or logs to find and draw-out figurative characteristics and then uses the dust and remnants created through the activity of carving to create large-scale, expressive drawings.
