Everard Read London presents

William Peers  Fanfare

8 - 30 March 2019

Everard Read London presents an exhibition of marble sculpture by British sculptor, William Peers. 

With this new body of work, Peers continues exploring the relationship between positive and negative shapes. Removing more marble allows the negative shapes to play a greater part and the focus shifts between the marble contours and the air around them - a conversation between matter and space.

British sculptor William Peers’ monumental sculpture Wild Albert graces the lawn of the newly reopened Linthwaite House overlooking Lake Windermere in Britain’s Lake District.

Carved from a single block of Carrara marble, the overlapping rings play tricks with the light and the sculpture appears to float amongst the wild flowers.

 Peers lives and works in Cornwall and he follows the long history of English stone carving brought to prominence by artists such as Henry Moore and Eric Gill.

William Peers will have a solo exhibition at Everard Read London in March 2019.
