Sculpture exhibition

A collection of sculptural works by Annabel Merrett is currently on display at the College in London.

An exhibition of sculptures that investigate how emotions, feelings and motivations can be exposed by art is on display at the College in London until mid-July.

The artist, Annabel Merrett, has constructed a series of self-portrait heads – in the grand tradition of the anatomists – to plumb the depths of her mind physically.

Inside, we find a series of bold and poetic symbols which spill out and invade the heads, just as strong and troubling emotions eventually invade our bodies.

By visually expressing personal and observed human motivations, Merrett takes the invisible and realises it in thoughtful, humorous, and sometimes disturbing ways.
