A “Kidney Stone Henge” by Simon Le Boggit will be featured at arts charity Outside In’s “Humanity” exhibition at Sotheby’s in London, Glasgow and Brighton.
Outside In was established in 2006 to assist artists facing barriers due to health, disability, social circumstance and isolation.
Over half of the works on show are by artists who have never exhibited with Outside In before and many have not previously exhibited at all.
Images of submitted work will be shown on large screens at each exhibition alongside the 80 selected pieces.
Outside In artists have interpreted humanity from a wide variety of perspectives, both personal and global, and include paintings and drawings, sculpture, ceramics, photography, film and performance pieces.
Simon, from Lincolnshire, made a replica of the well-known Amesbury attraction from his own kidney stones to demonstrate the frailty of the human condition, and the "inevitability of our demise" is reflected in the works of artists Alistair Clayton, Kathryn Moores and Billy Weston with their recurring skull motifs.
Humanity’ runs at Sotheby’s London from January 9-27, before touring to Project Ability in Glasgow in summer 2023 and Brighton & Hove Museums in winter 2023.
