'The Art of the Diorama' by Tim Harrold
Friday 12 – Friday 26 May, 9.00 am - 4.00 pm
St Catherine’s Church, 120 Southend Road, Wickford SS11 8EB.
Tim is exhibiting a selection of dioramas constructed over the past decade, some of which have never been seen publicly before, and some entirely new ones. He see these miniature ‘worlds in boxes’ as visual parables, lost objects with forgotten stories found and reimagined into new tales of meaning and significance. Tim Harrold is an artist who works with bric à brac, flotsam and jetsam, the discarded or misplaced along the journey of life. He finds lost objects and gives them new meaning through his three-dimensional assemblage style which brings together found and sourced elements into visual parables.
Alongside this exhibition is a Coronation display created by the Mothers Union for Wickford and Runwell called The Way to the Coronation.
