Roy Noakes' Creative Journey, Legacy Challenges and Dynamic Abstract Sculpture Sculpture Vulture

    • Visual Arts

In this episode, Lucy Branch, delves into the life and legacy of sculptor, Roy Noakes, whose journey from a humble East End background to a profound artist is as inspiring as it is instructive. Our guest, Biddy Noakes, shares her personal and intimate perspective on Roy's evolution as an artist, from his early days as an apprentice carver to his deep exploration of form and light, from traditional carving to innovative sculptural expressions.

Our discussion also touches on a universal challenge that many artists and their families face: managing an artist's legacy. Biddy opens up about her current struggle with what to do with Roy's body of work and how best to honour his artistic intentions.

If you'd like to support the show, please consider purchasing, Bronze Behaving Badly, about the foundations of preserving sculpture and architectural features or Wax On Wax Off: How To Care For Sculpture. Or, one of several novels by Lucy Branch where sculpture is always at the heart of the story.
