Matthew
Simmonds has done his graduation in art and architecture of the medieval
period. He is trained as an
architectural stone carver and has participated in the restoration of several important
historic monuments in England like Westminster Abbey and Ely Cathedral.
The sculptures
though mini is scale communicate the exact sense of space one experiences in
these buildings. The light is beautifully captured to enhance the architectural
features. Essentially stone, the material used does full justice in conveying
the exact feel of the building. One truly feels like they are looking inside the building in terms of experience.
