The exhibition explores Gosney’s expert experimentation with various types of wood and metal throughout his career and considers the importance of drawing to his artistic practice. Materials and Making looks at how Gosney draws inspiration from his immediate environment and lived experiences, with horses, the human figure and music emerging as particularly influential subjects.

Featuring over 45 works, highlights include his striking ‘Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse’, crafted from copper and Perspex, the emotive ‘Father and Son, Bam’, his ‘Jazzman’, expertly carved from a single block of sycamore wood, and a trio of drawings depicting views of the nearby York Museum Gardens.
