Ladder Imagined is a velvet rope knotted to hold ‘wands of intent’ made from bronze cast lavender stems. Lavender is a medicinal plant that has been in use for centuries and there are recent studies supporting its effectiveness in different neurological and psychological disorders. Bronze is an alloy which is primarily copper – a naturally occurring highly conductive metal used by humans from c.8000BC. Copper is an essential trace mineral to all living organisms and symbolises both masculine and feminine energy for protection against dark maladies. The chosen form of Ladder Imagined is a response to the ‘witch’s ladder’ first written about in Folk-Lore Journal in 1887 wherein Wellington, Somerset, UK an object that was referred to as a witch ladder was found in an old house. While subsequent investigations into the use of the object have not proven or disproven it as a spellcasting form, “it nevertheless became involved in the revival of witchcraft in Britain during the 20th century” and remains in Witchcraft practices today as a way to carry intent.

Royal Academy of Arts SUMMER EXHIBITION 2020

252 years ago, a group of artists made it their mission to form an annual exhibition to support artists and architects, by showcasing art of the moment to the nation. The Summer Exhibition has run uninterrupted ever since: a backdrop to famous artistic rivalries of the past and now a fixture of the summer calendar for art seekers, year after year.
Coordinated by artistic duo Jane and Louise Wilson RA, The Summer Exhibition is the world’s oldest open-submission exhibition.
This year’s exhibition includes new works by Tracey Emin, Rebecca Horn, Anselm Kiefer, Julian Schnabel, Gillian Wearing, and Ai Weiwei

Thanks, Sebastion Bottcher for the photography. #royalacademysummerexhibition #lectureroom #royalacademy #summershow #richarddeacon #summernotsummer #rasummer @timshawsculptor @traceyeminstudio @phyllidabarlow
