TUESDAY 14^TH
White, Gold, Mountain

‘White, Gold, Mountain presents a (re)assembled landscape: cut, collaged and arranged to frame new versions of ‘the wilderness’. The paintings in this exhibition focus on rocks, mountains, and mineral compounds, coercing these elements into disproportionate scales and disruptive compositions to infer the psycho-geography of a mythic and sublime terrain.’

Date: Tuesday- Saturday (8^th-25^th May)
