Philip Hoare
William Blake and the Sea Monster of Love
Poet, painter, printer and visionary William Blake has inspired 200 years of art, poetry and protest.
Weaving between the historical, cultural and personal, Philip Hoare reveals a web of creative minds and artistic iconoclasts inspired by Blake’s wild and revolutionary genius. Reaching out of his past and into our future, Blake draws together the natural world and metaphysical realms, merging the human, the animal and the spiritual, firing up 20th century artists, filmmakers, poets, writers and musicians including Derek Jarman and Paul Nash with his radical promise of absolute freedom.
