Merchants of Light : David Redfern

11 Oct-16 Oct 2010

Overview

David Redfern will be showing a number of constructions and works on paper in “Merchants of Light”. The exhibition investigates the interface between science (rational thought) and belief (organised religion). The wooden constructions are based on Renaissance altarpieces, especially their shape. Many diverse materials are brought into play, jigsaws, mirrors, nails and luggage labels for example. Works on paper continue the theme of science and belief using collage, newspaper, old library books, photographs and giclée prints.
