In Conversation with Robert Powell and Alasdair Richmond

About In Conversation with Robert Powell and Alasdair Richmond

Hall of Hours is thought-provoking multimedia exploration of time, humanity, and societal critique, inspired by medieval Books of Hours and the works of artists like Hogarth, Bosch, and Goya. Featuring prints, sculpture, sound installations, and a monumental 4.5-meter human clock with over 1000 characters, Powell’s work invites reflection on how we experience, order, and preserve time.

This artist talk offers a unique opportunity to hear Powell discuss his creative process, philosophical inspirations, and the interplay of history and contemporary art.

Join Robert Powell and Professor Alasdair Richmond for a thought-provoking conversation about his creative process and the concept of time explored in his work.
