Ronald Moody: Sculpting Life Audio Guide
The clips used in this audio guide are selections from Ronald Moody’s BBC radio broadcast, Calling The West Indies, as well as television interviews and unpublished notes and letters from the artist.
This material from the artist was honourably gathered by his niece, Cynthia Moody (1924 - 2013), a filmmaker and editor. She devoted her retirement to restoring the legacy of Ronald Moody, her uncle, after inheriting his Estate on his death in 1984. Cynthia Moody worked tirelessly to promote Moody’s work, donating sculptures to important public collections and pulling together her research into his art and life in an unrealised catalogue raisonné.
This audio guide - which can be used in the Ronald Moody: Sculpting Life exhibition - is voiced by Errol Lloyd (b. 1943), a distinguished artist and good friend of Ronald Moody.
