Carole Andrews FRBS, Red Vilosa
Carole Andrews FRBS, Fellow of the Royal British Society of Sculptors, headlines the 3D work with her stunning, oversized piece Red Vilosa. Carole is influenced by her deep interest in the natural world. “The rich patchwork of texture and form seen in the reef, together with the diversity of sea life inform my sculpture.” She employs the techniques associated with origami and embroidery using basic building materials to create engaging, oversized pieces that demand your attention.
