From 30 June, an exhibition of 11 works by South West Sculptors can be seen in the Grade II listed gardens of The Bishop’s Palace and Gardens, in Wells.
Martin Staniforth’s sculptures are part of the exhibition and deal with "hope and natural progression".Image source,Martin Staniforth said: "I’ve called the sculpture ‘Scension’ because there’s an ambiguity – are they ascending or descending? Rising or falling? Emerging or disappearing? “This theme is very much present in the Somerset landscape, that used to be full of Elm trees until Dutch Elm Disease wiped them out.The sculptures were woven from willow withies at Martin’s workshop in Devon, where he created the work in sections.‘Scension’ is part of an exhibition of 11 works by South West Sculptors and will run from 30 June until 24 September.
