Roger Murray: Procession

On now until 10 June 2023

Procession, the idea of continuous movement, rhythmic cycles and the passage of time was the unifying thread that brought together the new works created for Roger Murray’s latest exhibition. Ideas around technology, spirituality and the physical nature of wood converging, all feature in this new collection of wall-mounted sculptures.

This new body of work sees the introduction of resin combined with metallic powder applied to the surface of some works, which simulate the movement of water or air, thus capturing the fluidity and dynamism of nature’s processes. It also allows Murray to explore the interplay between order and chaos, with the surfaces creating both patterns and irregularities.

Other pieces in the series are fabricated from carefully selected wood, and are treated in a way that enhances the unique history and character of each piece.

"I’m always striving to awaken a deep appreciation for the beauty and mysteries of existence, inviting viewers to embark on their own personal journey of self-discovery and spiritual connection."
