    Included in the exhibition (and exhibited inside) are four recently completed carvings that show the artist at his most exuberant, pushing his chosen material to its limits. Peter Stiles describes how the stone now “billows and bends as if a wind has blown onto them altering their shapes”. These new works continue Peers’s central theme of engineering his carvings so they appear to yield to the force of nature, their permanence and weight transformed into something far lighter, almost ephemeral, as if the stone had come alive.
