Trials and Tribulations: Exhibition viewing evening












We had a very enjoyable opening night at St Andrew's Wickford this evening with a fascinating talk by John Paul Barrett about his work.

John Paul spoke about his career to date, how he became an artist, the spirituality that informs his work and his interest in Eastern European iconography. His work has a sculptured and textured look and he told us about the technique he uses to achieve that look. He also spoke about some of the artists that have inspired his expressionist style and why they are important to him. He ended by telling us about some the other themes and topics he addresses.

To view the exhibition, St Andrew’s is usually open: Sat 9am-12.30pm; Sun 9.30am-12 noon; Mon 2-3.45pm; Tue 1-4.30pm; Wed 10am-12 noon; Fri 10am-1pm. See https://wickfordandrunwellparish.org.uk/whats-on.html for more information.

The next Unveiled arts and performance event on a Friday evening is: Friday 27 September (7.30 pm) – Dave Crawford in concert. Popular local musician, Dave Crawford writes engaging/melodic songs in Americana/ Alt-Rock/Indie-Folk. He has performed at the Leigh Folk Festival, Pin Drop Sessions, & Music for Mind together with Kev Butler. This will be Dave’s second concert at Unveiled. We have also enjoyed his powerful vocals & guitar at our Open Mic Nights.
