This striking exhibition book features photography that showcases Marc Quinn’s new and existing sculptures, paintings, drawings, and evocative frozen works.
Light into Life encompasses monumental sculptures in the Kew landscape alongside a gallery exhibition that examines our complex and often challenging relationship with the natural world. It includes newly conceived artworks inspired by Kew’s archives, scientific research, and horticulture. These are accompanied by a selection of existing pieces, many of which explore the idea of nature as a fundamental part of humanity, a prominent focus of Marc Quinn’s practice since the 1990s. Together, the works explore our common biological origins and reflect on humanity’s capacity to both preserve and destroy nature.
Quinn's reflective artworks are well-presented in the exhibition book's gloss paperback format, with stunning imagery seamlessly spanning multiple pages, alongside an essay by Francesca Gavin and contributions by Prof. William J. Baker and Dr. Melanie-Jayne Howes.
The saddle stitch binding allows the book to lay flat, showcasing this spectacular body of work.
