Noah of the Zoa: Exhibition by George Harding - Private View

'Noah of the Zoa' is an exhibition by artist George Harding, featuring a collection of vibrant oil paintings and ceramic reliefs.

Core influences to Harding's body of work are artist William Blake's invented spiritual mythology known as 'The Four Zoas', alongside psychiatrist, psychologist and psychotherapist Carl Jung's theory of universal archetypes that shape our understanding of personality.

Uniting these influences, Harding creates his own personal mythology and gives visual representation to the archetypes that exist within himself. Understanding the self not as a fixed form, 'Noah of the Zoa' imagines it as an ark - a refuge to multiple, ever-changing selves. By exhibiting, Harding demonstrates acceptance and healing embrace to the characters he's created.

'Noah of the Zoa' is a testament to the nature of our inner states and the therapeutic power that comes with acceptance and exploration. It is a creative culmination, where new forms of emotional being are constantly changing and developing.
