As objects totally divorced from their original context\, they have always possessed a sense of mystery.\nThe Vaults series takes this early fascination as a starting point and mixes it with a later interest in Brutalist architecture.\nThey are intended as objects of ambiguity\, for which purpose and intention are purposefully left void.\nThey are constructed using bespoke moulds made from plastic card. The structure is created in reverse\, both upside down and in negative. The plastic mould allows for a very smooth finish\, where the only features present are those that have been deliberately placed.” \nArtist Tom Crask \nTom Crask’s exhibition ‘Vaults’ is displayed in the Attic Gallery from 5th November to 22nd December. \nFREE ADMISSION URL:https://www.abingdon.gov.uk/event/exhibition-vaults-by-artist-tom-crask LOCATION:Abingdon Museum CATEGORIES:Abingdon County Hall Museum,Arts & Culture,County Hall Museum,Heritage,Market Place,Sports & Leisure ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.abingdon.gov.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/soc-med-advert-vaults.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20241107T184500 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20250102T221500 DTSTAMP:20220708T154026Z CREATED:20220708T154026Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220708T154026Z UID:10011250-1731005100-1735856100@www.abingdon.gov.uk SUMMARY:Mindfulness for Stress 8-week course DESCRIPTION:Are you feeling stressed\, tense or anxious? \nWhether it’s down to work\, relationships\, or the state of the world right now\, this course is for you. \nOver eight mornings and daily home practice you will learn practical tools for coping better with challenges\, reducing tension and boosting your well-being in a friendly group.
