Wood Engravings: ian kingsford-smith
4 – 20 December 2020
Combining history, memory, ambitions, fantasy, mythology and spirituality, Ian Kingsford-Smith narrates a visual story of Egyptian tombs and medieval European art to represent the relationship between the sacred and the profane. In Wood Engravings, Kingsford-Smiths’ use of cultural and symbolic imagery demonstrate the extent of how existential concerns transverse both disparate paradigms of thought and religious doctrine.
