Traces - glass, optical casts with texture detail and engraved rim, 5.5 cms diameter, £25 each). Traces are reproduced from waxes that Sally used as a kind of three-dimensional notebook, carving marks and impressions of things she saw as she walked to villages around Sars Poteries when she was undertaking her residency at MusVerre in the north of France. The casts are all individually engraved with marks made by Sally as she draws on her memories of the rhythm and detail that she experienced in northern France.

The Thornflower, Charlotte Mayer's sculpture for peace and reconciliation, continues its journey. It can now be seen in Coventry Cathedral, a treasure trove of works of art by Epstein, Sutherland, Piper, Frink, Clarke, Coper and others. Last week saw a performance of Britten's War Requiem, commissioned for the opening of the newly consecrated Cathedral in 1962. The Cathedral has an active Reconciliation Ministry, and will be City of Culture in 2021.
