Solo Exhibition | Of Mountains and Light
I’m excited to share about my upcoming solo show, Of Mountains and Light. Please join me for the opening reception on Friday 14th June from 6 - 8pm at Tichborne Projects in Brighton, East Sussex. There's no need to RSVP but feel free to let me know if you're coming, I'd love to see you there!
The transformations of air and light year round, from the lengthening shadows and deepening colours of autumn, through the metallic glints of winter, to the hopeful dawning of spring.
The landscape prints presented in Of Mountains and Light embody the changing seasons and times of day with their shifts in ambient light and subdued colours, from moonlight to sunlight, in her Komorebi series - the Japanese word used to describe being amongst the trees with sunlight shining through.
Referencing a trip to Norway and the earthy tones and puddle shapes in the natural elements of the Norwegian fjords and mountains, negative space has been used to embody the calmness experienced being outdoors in nature and a space to pause, which also emanates the Japanese concept, 'ma' - negative space is seen as a positive, creating serenity and balance. This concept extends from zen gardens, the space between objects as light and shadows, to sound and silence. Using graphite powder and pigments to screenprint with continues this interplay of subdued colour, light and quietness often evoked with transitory changes in seasons and times of day.
I will be exhibiting a number of prints made over the last couple of years (plus a couple of others). I'm really looking forward to it and hope you can make it along. I'll be at the space during the show so come and say hi, and if you'd like to make an appointment outside of the weekend opening hours, or if you have any questions, please do get in touch.
