British sculptor brings wood to life in powerful exhibition at Astley Hall.
'The Way of All Flesh' - an exhibition of elegantly crafted and powerful sculptures and drawings by figurative sculptor and draughtsman Jamie Frost MRSS.
Frost brings the tradition of wood carving into a contemporary gallery setting with his expressive and captivating life-size sculptures. The smell, textures and colours of the sculptures make this exhibition a multi-sensory experience where bark, saw marks and energetic splinters contrast with fine craftsmanship.
The exhibition centres around three major works, shown alongside numerous smaller sculptures, and a selection of supporting drawings. The largest of the sculptures titled 'Unbrush My Hair' stands an impressive eight feet high and has been hand-carved from a single ash tree.
