Church Times - Art review: Leviathan by Shezad Dawood (Salisbury Cathedral)

My latest exhibition review for Church Times is on Shezad Dawood's “Leviathan” in Salisbury Cathedral:

'These paintings provide an opportunity to reflect, too, on the story of the slaughter of the innocents and the flight into Egypt. Canon Kenneth Padley, cathedral Treasurer, who chairs its arts advisory panel, has said: “This exhibition is a timely reminder, amid the anticipation and excitement of Advent and Christmas, that Jesus and his family were refugees and were being persecuted.”'
