Pathways is an artist’s exploration of the paths that surround us.
Ian Marlow is a sculptor who believes that there is a natural spirituality in everything.
This is not a religious spirituality but an echo from the original creation of the universe which exists in everything that has evolved since the ‘big bang’ - a pure spirituality untainted by the myriad of religions that have claimed it.
“Art,” he says, “is one soul talking and another soul listening.”
There is something in artists that allows them to tap into this spark of creation more easily than most and represent it in a different, more accessible form.
Written in prose poetry and illustrated with photographs he has taken in his native west country, Pathways asks us to look at the paths, track, and streams - visible and invisible - in a new light.
