Simon Pope at Spacex Carved from Memory

15th April 2009

Spacex is pleased to present a new project by Simon Pope, which will be split over two sites at Spacex and Exeter Cathedral. Pope plans to restore a stone figure from Exeter Cathedral which his great grandfather crafted over 90 years ago and has great significance for five generations of his family. Rather than use the Cathedral’s extensive archive for reference, the figure will be carved from the memory of the artist’s grandmother working in dialogue with a local stonemason.

Simon Pope

The installation at Spacex will comprise an audio recording between Pope’s grandmother and the stonemason including the conversations and process of interpretation, imagining and reconstruction. This form of documentation will capture the process of translating the figure from memory to speech to dialogue to drawing and towards its final form.
