Richard Sweeney’s latest body of paper sculptures is showing at the Escape Art Centre in Tonbridge, Kent, from 2nd February – 16th March 2022. Inspired by birds in flight, flowing water and clouds, the latest series of sculptures was created using curved-pleated watercolour paper. The collection includes Sweeney’s largest wall-mounted piece to date, Flight Sequence (above).

I had been watching a fair bit of birdlife whilst out walking last year; here are some photographs from one winter morning in 2021, including a swan cleaning its wing, and a gull caught diving into the water.
