“For the last decade William Peers’s complex, abstract forms have pushed at the technical possibilities of carving in marble, and for this exhibition, five of his recent works show the artist at his most exuberant.  Peter Stiles describes how the marble in these new carvings ‘billows and bends as if a wind has blown onto them altering their shapes’, with the stone seeming to yield to the gentlest forces. By contrast, two of his monumental carvings adopt simpler shapes to gently echo the landscape, their drama emerging through the changing effects of sunlight and shadow as it plays across the marble’s surface.”
