'Leap of Faith' A Retrospective by Vincent Gray (Closed)


It is with deep sadness that we have to close this exhibition in-line with government guidance. Further information can be found on our Covid-19 information page.

You can view the exhibition virtually on our Youtube channel.

‘Leap of Faith’ includes a diverse range of work ranging from smaller maquettes through to life-size statues. Much of the work included in the exhibition is cast bronze, with the artist bringing together a number of techniques and skills to achieve a wide variety of finishes, showcasing the versatility of the medium.

Some of the works also have a direct correlation to Portsmouth’s ‘Cathedral of the Sea’, including the striking ‘Union’ which has been likened to a ship’s capstan, through to the wonderfully detailed ‘Nelson’ maquette. Gray has a wide background of experience including television, theatre, and design, working alongside some notable names across arts and engineering sectors both in the UK and in Scandinavia.

‘Leap of Faith’ will be open from Friday 4 December 2020, until Friday 15 January 2021 at Portsmouth Cathedral. The exhibition (including the Cathedral) is free to enter, and open throughout the week during normal opening hours making a fantastic detour during Christmas shopping!
