KRISTIAN FLETCHER Kristian, a recent winner of the prestigious Jerwood Drawing prize, will be showing his work with View for the first time. He has immersed himself in the story of William Watts’ recurring surreal dream. During a walk in Hotwells William was caught in a heavy shower, but instead of drops of water falling from the clouds, molten lead fell in a perfect globular form. He put his dream to the test, which eventually resulted in the building of the Sheldon Bush Shot Tower. Kristian has built an interactive installation that accompanies a series of beautifully drawn constructions, suspended in heavenly sky-scapes.
