'Transfigured' Exhibition at Rachel Bebb Contemporary

Transfigured ("transform into something more beautiful or elevated") is an exhibition held at Rachel Bebb Contemporary. The exhibition celebrates letter carving and exhibitors were encouraged to use offcuts, in the spirit of recycle, reuse and reduce.

“At a time when some quarries are running short of certain stone, or the quality of what they are finding is diminishing, it seemed appropriate to try to make every piece of material matter. So, the idea sprang up for an exhibition which would challenge artists to reach into the corners of their studios, select an offcut, and elevate it, creating something beautiful from what might have been a redundant or forgotten slice of our planet. It seemed in keeping with the spirit of reducing waste and honouring natural resources.”

Catherine Samy. Lettering Arts Trust, Chair of Trustees.
