Envisage: a sculptural journey

About

Envisage is an exhibition of fourteen huge and impressive, sculpted heads by Richard Gilbert at Wallspace, the gallery in the City church of All Hallows on London Wall. The works refer to the traditional ‘stations of the cross' - but this is no conventional piece of religious iconography. Each of these, sometimes fearsome, heads is deliberately made using different materials, individually expressing ideas, moods and resonances. They may act as a challenging sculptural journey or as the basis for pilgrimage, offering an opportunity for meditation in the run-up to Easter. Whichever way they are approached this collection of heads is a tour de force.
