A Week of Angels

Saturday 29 October – Thursday 17 November

Private view: Friday 28 October

Workshops: 12/13 November - 10.30 – 4.30pm (booking essential)

Tom Lomax, recently retired from the Slade School of Fine Art, is a practicing sculptor and is the artist behind an array of significant public art commissions. He will be exhibiting a series of seven colour printed sculptures, entitled: ‘A Week of Angels’ through November. Each angel sculpture represents one of the seven days of the week that it governs, derived from Barrett’s “The Magus”. The images have then been generated in CAD (Computer Aided Design) from their respective “Sigil” (angel signature) to create 3D prints, which will be on display along with related bronzes, maquettes and digital prints.

Fascinated by angels – the notion that they are not simply humans with extraordinary powers and can fly, but are complex cultural metaphors that are at once highly personal and yet understood universally – Tom will offer workshops alongside his exhibition, exploring this phenomenon. He will look at angels as metaphors and how we might represent these metaphors in visual terms – exploring structures, geometries and patterns.
